Air bag light malfunction sensor on no accidents
I got into a car accident on August 29, 2021. My driver side aid bag never deployed and I found out there was a recall 2 years before I bought the car from the dealership in 2019. I ended up getting stitches on my eyebrow, and my nose needed some but it was to late by the time I received medical attention so they gave me strips and my lip was split open. I have pictures of my car and my face and the side airbags went off but not the steering wheel
While driving the passenger seatbelt alarm goes off and nobody is in the seat. This happens randomly for no reason.continues to ding until buckled. Air bag engages. Other times it lets me know that the passenger airbag off when empty.
The vehicle was being adjusted while parking along side a curb on a hill. The driver pulled forward, then attempted to stop in order to put the car in reverse to get closer to the curb, but the brake pedal would not depress. The car began to roll down the hill and hit the back of a parked SUV and ended up wedged under the back of the SUV. The entire front end of the vehicle was smashed, but the airbag never deployed.
Car was involved in a left frontal/undercarriage accident after being run off the interstate by an inattentive driver. Vehicle was travelling at approximately 40mph upon impact with a large drain grate in a pothole. Impact should have been sufficient enough to deploy the frontal airbags. Side curtain airbags deployed, front airbags did not. Vehicle was deemed a total loss. No major injuries occurred, only minor bruising and burns as a result of side curtain air bag deployment. Driver and two children were inside the vehicle upon impact, all properly restrained by seat belts. Police report was filed. Emergency medical and fire were dispatched as well. Accident occurred on interstate 95 s, in savannah, ga.

Airbag light keeps coming on and off at random times. When the vehicle is moving no specific way of driving just driving
Three different independent problems. Passenger airbag dashboard keeps flashing. Weird wheels sound while turning either side. Passenger's seat belt is not functioning.
I was driving and was t-boned on the driver's side. The driver's side curtain airbag deployed late, hitting me in the head and trapping me against the window. I have a resultant shoulder injury that may not have happened with appropriate deployment.
"takata recal" the air bag light keeps turning on . Feel loss of power when driving speed limit under fourty-five also suddendley looses power when going the speedof seventy-seventy-five speed in the highway speed drops to fifty-five feels like it wants to stop. Afraid of getting hit from behind also hesitates when driving the speed limit under fourty-five feels like it wants to stop. Also the front wheel aligment light keeps turning on when ithecar is in motion and the airbag light also turns on when the car is in motion. These thing have been happening since april 2018 my car has only 41,ooo miles on it
O whom it may concern, my son was in an accident this past tuesday 4/3/18 where he reared end another vehicle.. The air bag light came on but the air bags never deployed. It was enough damage to total the car.. Aprox 9-12 thousand dollars in damage.. Luckily no one was injured but I am very concerned about the air bags not deploying. The adjuster from the insurance company also was wondering why they did not deploy. I have read there is some issues with the 2017 elantra and airbags not deploying correctly but not sure if applies to this situation I would like someone to review the damage and give me some kind of idea why the air bags did not deploy..
Takata recall- vehicle was turning left when hit from driver's side by another vehicle. Driver was injured, airbags did not deploy. See pictures. State police suspect that none of the airbag sensors were triggered during the collision when it was expected they would do so under such circumstances.

Driving around 35 miles an hour and come to a small curve turned the wheel little bit but car went straight and guard rail hit passager side front of car and driver airbag came out but didn't blow all the way up and had a hole in it with stitching around it so driver airbag is no count just falls in your lap and electric steering is unpredictable
