Lost control of my car when I looked down to pick up a piece of ice in my console. In the crash the steering wheel air bag did not deploy, and my accelerator stuck. I had my seat belt on but the force of the impact in the ditch was so hard and my air bag did not deploy that my back was fractured in the accident!!

Airbags did not deploy in a crash by model year
What owners say
My daughter got in a car accident going 70 miles an hour, and the airbag didn't deploy.
Tl* the contact owns a 2012 honda cr-v. The VIN was not provided. The contact stated that while driving about 45 MPH, a tire popped off from another vehicle and struck the driver's side front end bumper of the contact's vehicle, caved in the frame and punctured the radiator. The contact was able to maintain control of the vehicle. The driver's side air bag did not deploy while the passenger air bag deployed. There was no warning. The contact sustained injures that required medical attention, a whiplash, head and shoulder pains. A police report was filed. The vehicle was damaged and was towed away by the insurance company, awaiting a decision on the state of the vehicle. The dealer and the manufacture were not called. The failure mileage was approximately 135,000.
While driving southbound on the far right lane of the ny state thruway the evening of jan 8, 2015, I lost control of my honda crv on black ice that was caused by a water main break with a temperature outside of about 20 degrees f. The car skidded into the middle lane where it was lit in the rear by a tractor trailer resulting in the car doing a complete 360 into the far left lane where the front end hit a pick up truck. The damage to rear and front the vehicle was extreme. My compliant is that the only air bags that deployed were the driver's side and curtain bags. None of the front air bags deployed. I know that honda has had issues with air bag recalls, but I had verified directly with honda that my vehicle was not one of those subject to a recall. I think this incident warrants some type of investigation into why the air bags did not deploy.
Tl* the contact owns a 2012 honda cr-v. While driving 55 MPH, a deer ran out in front of the contact's vehicle. The contact crashed into the deer. The air bags failed to deploy. The contact sustained minor injuries that did not require medical attention. A police report was not filed. The vehicle was driven to the contact's residence. The vehicle was taken to an independent body shop where it was repaired. The dealer was contacted. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 50,000. The VIN was not available.
Tl* the contact owns a 2012 honda cr-v. The contact stated that while traveling 55 MPH the vehicle collided with a deer and the drivers air bag and passenger side air bags failed to deploy. No injuries were reported. The vehicle was towed to a repair shop. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileages was 1,500.
My wife who was driving our honda crv 2012 had an accident on the freeway off ramp. When the car in front of her ran over some wire that was left on the road, the driver made a sudden stop. My wife was unable to stop in time and hit the vehicle with our honda. There was considerable damage on both cars. Since the airbags did not deploy and the safety belt in our 2012 honda crv did not restrain my wife from hitting the steering wheel, she was seriously hurt. I hope other owners of the honda crv 2012 do not have this type of situation happen to them.
