Front Seat Belt Anchorage problem #1

Traveling at 65 mph on freeway. We were clipped by another car on our right front bumper. Our SUV slid to the left crossing 3 freeway lanes and we hit head on into the concrete freeway divider. Our SUV slide down the freeway along the divider and made one complete roll, landing again on out tires. The front damage to the car is massive. No airbags deployed. In addition the front passenger seat belt did not lock. It stayed loose during the accident. I have email pictures of the damaged SUV and also of the console showing no airbags were deployed.
