What 1994 Mitsubishi Galant owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
The air bags did not open during my automobile accident it was practically a head on collision and I was going at a speed of 45 MPH it was a good thing I was wearing my seatbelt or I would have gone right through the front windshield.
The airbags did not fail to work, my complaint is concerning the vinyl of the dash that the airbag is kept in. The vinyl of the car looks as if it has been warped from the sun. The vinyl around the airbag looks like it is receeding from the dash. The top part of the airbag cover is popping up and looks as if it will come apart. The dash vinyl is also receding from the top closest to the air vent.
Passenger air bag looks to be defective. Air bag may be coming out of dashboard, and rubber part of the dash board is peeling off. Please provide any additional information/attachments/photographs.
Consumer stated that on passenger's side of vehicle in the dash one can hear the airbag making a clicking noise. Consumer feels unsafe because it may deploy.
Consumer was involved in a side impact collision driving at 20 MPH, and was forced into two other cars head-on. Upon impact, neither driver's side nor passenger's side air bag deployed. Also, car was totaled. Please provide any further details.
