Major front end damage including bent frame rail to over $10,500. Daughter had slight concussion and I had chest pain from seatbelt. Chrysler said their was no problem with airbags?
Consumer was traveling 45mph and hit colvert with front driver side & broke an axle. Vehicle flipped over & airbags never deployed. Dealer was contacted. Consumer found out there were 3 sensors & 2 had to set off.
Driving 55-60mph when large truck in front, with no tailgate, lost an axle it was carrying as part of a load. It rolled off the truck & struck the vehicle in front. Air bags failed to deploy. Vehicle ran over axle, and was severely damaged. Driver suffered nerve damage to neck and shoulder. *ak
While driving on a city road vehicle in front was making a left hand turn then it stopped in middle of road. Rearended vehicle, and neither airbag deployed.
This vehicle has been in the dealer 4 times and has 1500 miles. The major problem, was a major water leak or leaks. The vehicle has been out of service for a total of 20 days. After finding a huge puddle on the driver's side floor, dealer was contacted, and vehicle was taken apart inside and out. After dealer performed recommended repairs per technical service bulletin(980710232998), vehicle still leaked. Dealer "sealed" every screw, grommet, and wire that entered firewall. After sending car through car wash six times, vehicle appeared leak-free. It remains to be seen if the many leaks in vehicle have actually been corrected since dealer could not pinpoint the location of any leak.
This was reported to me about two pepole in a new 99 car in lexington park md geico. No safety defect listed in summary.
No deployment of driver's air bag during vehicle collision, injuries due to failure. Mjs
