I was driving on a gravel road a little to fast and my car started to slide from side to side I tried to gain control but couldn't and ended up hitting a metal bridge. The air bags did not deploy as they should have. My whole front right in is damaged and the speed I was going the air bags should have went off!.

A few days ago my airbag lights on my dashboard turned on. When I used my obd to check for the problem, it said the driver side resistant was too high. I went in to get the car checked at a kia dealership, but was told that they would need to call and see if warranty would cover the parts, if not it'll be over $600 plus $165 for the diagnosis. This is too much for a part of a car I have no control over, and especially too early for a car that is said to be a new model. Our other cars from other makes that were purchased in 2010 and 2012 doesn't even have as much problems as I did with my 2015 kia forte in the 3 years I've had it. Another problem I have is that the car would occasionally jerk whether on a highway or streets, it doesn't happen often but it has become an everyday thing, where it would lag/hesitate when accelerating. Speed does not matter. When driving over to the dealership the car would jerk, but once the dealership drove the car they said nothing happened and didn't try to check for the problem. I instead was told that they would check if I informed them of this problem after the third visit. Over the years I had to pay out of pocket to get a leak fixed months after my purchase, my paint was coming off and warranty didn't cover it because it was used( still within 6 months after purchase) had to changed the breaks, change the tires, change the headlight and backlights, change the battery, and have noticed the lack of acceleration my car has compared to other cars. I'm to return monday to the dealership to see if warranty covers the airbag lights, but not feeling that it will.
