My wife had an accident a few years ago and the air bags did not deploy. We were told that the air bag did not deploy because it was not a direct frontal collision. Recently we had to take our car to the dealership because the check engine light stayed on. Also every once and a while the air bag light would bleak and go off. It ended up being the electronic control module $446.00 to repair. The dealership stated that this needed to be repaired right a way because the air bags would not deploy. If it was not for the check engine light staying on we could have had an accident not knowing that there was a defect with the restraint system.
Vehicle was involved in a collision. It was hit broadside, and the side curtain air bags did not deploy.
