Takata recall, I was involved in a rear ended collision on a highway while stopped causing my car to rearend the car in front of me. The airbags did not deploy and said malfunction on the dashboard. There was $19000 in damage, I asked for the seatbelts and airbags to be replaced because I was afraid to drive the car and feel safe. They would not do it because they said the computer was able to reset. I specifically asked over and over as I could not feel safe, no one would listen so I ended up trading the car that was 7 months old in and taking a loss to feel safe. Since the airbag malfunctioned I could not feel like it would keep me safe in another accident. I have never been in an accident prior to this.
On December 5, 2016 I was involved in an accident. My vehicle was struck in the left front fender by another vehicle. Impact was direct as the other vehicle struck mine at a ninety degree angle causing extensive damage to the fender and left front wheel assembly. Impact forced my vehicle off the highway and into a concrete pillar supporting a steel lightpole. I was travelling about 30 mph at time of impact with the concrete pillar. Sudden impact caused the rear of my vehicle to leave the ground. This was the direct response to the sudden stop. Air bags did not deploy. At the time of accident I was travelling on a highway and in motion. Vehicle was equipped with driver, passenger and side airbags.
