Front end collision, air bags did not deploy.
1. Rear-end collision. There were no visual or mechanical defects observed before or after the accident. When vehicle was struck from behind. While stopped, the seat sounded as though it zipped through the gears in the chair and the backrest at the same time, leaving the backrest locked in the recline position. I was thrown backward and the seat belt extended all the way out and wrapped around my right leg just above the kneecap injuring my back and neck. I feel that I should not have been injured had the seat not failed.
While driving about 30-35 MPH the vehicle rear ended another vehicle yet the air bags did not deploy. The consumer was not injured.
While driving, vehicle lost oil, dealer replaced leaking cylinder head gasket. On another occasion, vehicle lost all power, suddenly shutting off. Dealer replaced distributor to correct condition. *ak
Failure to start and/or maintain idle in wet weather. Auto lurches, sputters. Accc mechanic could not diagnose.
I was driving on the interstate at 70mph when I heard a loud noise under the hood. Within seconds the red paint turned black in the hood's center. As I attempted to get to the shoulder, small debris was falling from my car. Pillars of dark black smoke obstructed my view. I was able to negotiate the traffic and get off the freeway. I immediately turned off the vehicle and ran to a safe distance. Within a minutes the interior was fully engulfed in flames. When the fire department arrived the car was a total loss.

The screw holding the bulb ground had loosened. It lead to a premature bult failure. After tightening and bulb replacement, it is fine.
