Airbags did not deploy in a crash by model year
What owners say
I have been seeing commercials about airbags not deploying on chevy vehicles. My daughter was killed in my 04 chevy tahoe where the airbags did not deploy. She was thrown from the vehicle and also another person was in the car as well. Airbags on the drivers or passengers side did not deploy. The truck flipped several times. The drivers seat also lifted up and was split in to. We asked the investigators and our insurance company to check into why the airbags did not deploy and they said it was normal, but we knew otherwise. They did not take any further action.
Tl* the contact owns a 2004 chevrolet tahoe. While driving approximately 50 MPH during rainy weather, the vehicle accelerated abnormally and crashed into a concrete medium. The vehicle began to spin around and then reversed while the contact depressed the brake pedal the entire time.

I was approaching an intersection heading northbound, got the green arrow, so proceeded to go. My vehicle was going about 5-10 miles per hour. Another car coming the opposite way, heading southbound ran the red light going about 35 miles per hour. My air bag did not blow. I drive a 2004 chevy tahoe. I had my 6yr old daughter in the car. We both got injuries. The other car's airbag blew . My car was crushed like tin foil and I can't understand why the air bag did not go off.
I was involved in a head on collision with 2 other vehicles, at 45 to 50 MPH, and my air bags failed to deploy.
Consumer lost control of the vehicle, it rolled over, and the roof collapsed. Also, no air bags deployed.*ak consumer glanced up in the rear view mirror at son, looked back down and had ran off the road with one tire. Tryed to correct ended up in the opposite lane. When consumer corrected this the tahoe tilted causing the tire to buckle and the rim caught on the pavement causing the car to begin flipping. It flipped 5 times landing on the roof. The tahoe was totaled.
