Received a recall notice about faulty airbag/seatbelt pretensioner. Dealership says they have no fix yet but it's a big deal to me because this affects safety devices and potentially my family's safety. I had to hard brake the other day and my son's seat belt didn't lock and he fell over in his booster seat

I was in an accident where I swerved to avoid hitting a coyote and ended up running up on a curb, over 2 trees, and into a pole. I was going about 35 MPH. The accident did $5400 in damage but my seat belt never locked up and the airbags never deployed.
