" takata recall" ? my husband was going to work one day and a deer came out of nowhere and hit him. He was going about 30 mph and was getting ready to turn into work. When the deer hit him, the drivers side air bag(curtain I think they call it) and drivers rear air bag deployed but not the airbag directly in front front of him. The side airbag hit him so hard that the airbag material left a mark on the left side of his neck. (it looked like a burlap/canvas material) my husband suffered a concussion and now has pcs and still is having problems because of the airbag . The car is currently not recall for the airbag but should be. His car was totaled.
Neither front nor side airbags deployed during a front end collision with a tree at approximately 50 mph.
The contact owns a 2009 Volkswagen Jetta. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 15 mph, the steering wheel and passenger side air bags inadvertently deployed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 83,000.
Airbag warning light went on yesterday. I plan to have it repaired this week. However, this is the third time this year I have seen the airbag warning light go on. The two previous times were each repaired, on 16 June 2010 and 24 June 2010. At the time of each of those two prior repairs, I was informed that a sensor had failed and that the front passenger airbag was thus disabled. This means that a vital safety component failed twice this year and possibly a third time.
The contact owns a 2009 Volkswagen Jetta. While driving 70 mph using the cruise control, she began tapping on the steering and suddenly the driver side air bag deployed. She crashed after the air bag deployed; however, she has no memory of the crash. She did not sustain any injuries. The current and failure mileages were 4000.
