Vehicle was purchased used & had been repaired from a crash. Airbags did not deploy in aug99 crash. Suspect airbags were never repaired from first crash and dealer that repaired & sold vehicle misrepresentated airbag status. Rules, regulations, recourse??? Body shop that repaired honda from aug99 crash said "the airbags in those hondas never go off". He had a 99 accord in shopat time that had the entire front end torn off ($10k+) and the airbags had never deployed??? By the samr token he had a chevy with minor front end damage from a curb & all bags had deployed.???? But my question is: if my airbags were never properly repaired/replaced after the first crash what are recourse/options. What does the federal safety agency require. Have full documentation.?
