Car was traveling approximately 30mph on a suburban street and was broad sided on the drivers side. The impact area was drivers front tire and the a post. Car was declared total by insurance company. Concern is, the drivers door air bag did not deploy. This impact was strong enough to rip the a post in the middle and buckle it inward. The impact was before the door which should of triggered the airbag. The car that hit mine ripped the outer shell from the door and puncture a large hole in the lower front corner. The arm to protect the driver that is located in the door was also severely damaged. I had a body shop technician look at the air bag sensor which can be seen in the door and there is damage all around the sensor. Why wouldn't the air bag go off with such a hard impact so close to the driver in a small compact car??.

Was in a front end collision going 45mph. Air bags never deployed.

My daughter was involved in a mva in which she slammed on her brakes and the brakes locked on her. She hit the rear of the other vehicle. She was going roughly 25-30 mph. She was roughly 30-40 feet away from the other vehicle when the brakes were applied. Her airbags did not deploy which considering the amount of damage done to her car is roughly $6500. I researched both issues and it seems to be a common problem in the vw Jetta.

I was traveling at 40 mph through a city street intersection. My car was t-boned on the driver's side with such force that my car was spun around almost 180 degrees. 80% of the impact was on the driver's rear door, 20% on the driver's door. The side airbags did not deploy, this included a car equipped with side/curtain airbags. I had issues previously with the windows properly working and had all components minus the electrical system replaced on the driver's door and a passenger door. There were a few other oddities at times with the electric system of the Jetta. Considering the force of the impact I suspect an electrical glitch with the sensors or some other problem that prevented the airbags from deploying. The damage was extensive enough that the car was totaled.

Airbag indicator light has come on and for the most part remains on. For short periods of time the light will go off, but inevitably, it always turns back on. This is very concerning and seems to be a systemic issue with this make and model year. Many report airbags not deploying in the event of an accident. Volkswagen needs to do the right thing and issue a recall before they have a pr nightmare by putting profit margins over the lives of their consumers.
