My car got into an auto accident and the airbag did not deploy. We were traveling in heavy traffic, weather was rainy, on nb I 5 just passing mile post 22 in woodland washington state.
Avoided a deer and had front end collision in a gated golf community. Estimated travel speed 25mph. Usaa insurance carrier totaled the vehicle. The airbags did not deploy!
I was at a complete rest approximately 5-10 ft behind a semi tracker trailer truck when a vehicle traveling at a rate of 55 MPH rear ending my stopped vehicle. The impact was so great it forced and pushed the front-end of my vehicle directly into the rearend of the stationary semi truck. The accident resulted in myself, the driver, and the passenger (both of us seat belted) to sustain concussions, severe cervical strains, upper and lower back injuries, hip contusions and facial lacerations. As this serious and very violent three vehicle occurred the air bags failed to deploy. Under these life threatening circumstances if the air bags had properly deployed our injuries may not have been so severe.
I had a low impact crash after I applied my brakes at approximately 2-300 feet before the vehicle in front of me. My tires are good and there were no indicator lights on my dashboard prior to the crash. I slid approximately 100 feet into a car stopped on the highway, because of a prior accident in my lane. When I began applying the brakes, I was traveling 60 MPH. I traveled another 4-5 seconds into the back of a vehicle. No airbags deployed. I was unable to stop the car! I think something malfunctioned. The collision center mechanic who is working on my car, tells me that if there was no indicator light prior to the crash, then there was no code thrown to the event data recorder. Therefore, he says the only thing he could do is test drive it afterwords and try and duplicate the failure. After the accident, and we traded insurance information, I drove home, 60 miles and the the brakes worked fine. Why did they fail this time?
