I have had a couple of pretty bad accidents to front end of my jeep liberty and the air bags never deployed. Last accident was pretty bad. Vehicle pulled out in from of me and I t-boned them, I tried to stop but didn't have enough time. Every airbag in their vehicle deployed. I was driving down a state highway when vehicle pulled out in front of me.
I was at a stop light completely stopped and a vehicle hit me going at a sped of 30 MPH, and pushed me into the car in front of me. The airbags never deployed, however I have terrible whiplash.
