What owners say
Slammed my front drivers side into a cement column in a parking lot. My airbag did not deploy. No major injury just a bruised jaw and sore neck. Incident 01/17/2013. Usaa auto insurance said car was totalled so I get the cash value.
1- I was driving at 55mph(55 posted) on route 38/lincoln highway in west chicago, il and as I approached the intersection an individual did not yield and turned in front of my path. I put on brakes probably about 10-20 feet before I made a high speed impact with his passenger side rear wheel and quarter panel with my front end. My car took the impact on the front end and my airbags did not deploy. I believe I hit the other car at about 50mph and it seems that my airbags should have deployed. My car was deemed a total loss and was not repaired by the insurance company because the frame was bent and broken. I do not know if it would have helped but my neck was injured in the collision. My safety restraints worked properly luckily.
Both airbags failed to deploy properly. Froth passenger sealbelt unbuckled upon crash impact.
In a driver's side collision, my side air bag did not deploy.
