2 Air Bag Not Deploy problem

Failure Date: 12/29/2014

I was in an accident where a majority of my front end was completely damaged. In fact the bumper was completely taken off with significant other damage which I have pictures off. Neither airbag deployed. Fortunately I was ok and did not sustain any injuries. I am just surprised by the size of the impact that the airbags did not deploy.

3 Air Bag Not Deploy problem

Failure Date: 12/26/2012

On day of the accident, it was snowing and road conditions were icy and slippery. As vehicle was going around the bend, driver noticed cars were stopped at a signal. Driver could not stop vehicle in time to avoid a crash since abs brakes locked all the wheels and the car was sliding and so driver swerved to avoid crashing into other cars and hit a tree head-on. Vehicle sustained front-end damage. Air bags did not deploy.

4 Air Bag Not Deploy problem

Failure Date: 10/31/2012

Was t-boned by someone who failed to yield on green. He was given a ticket. I was through the intersection going 34. 8 miles/hour at the triggering event. Has Toyota do inspection on car and "chip". It only registered a "front event". Repair costs are 12k, this included replacing both driver side doors????? why did the airbags not deploy or better yet why was there not even a side event registered when he clearly hit me in the side?? suffered a concussion and neck back injuries. Had my 6 and 2 year old in the back in car seats.
