Our 2000 nissan altima gxe 4 dr sedan comes equipped with driver and passenger side air bags. They failed to deploy during a serious accident this past friday. Although we were not seriously hurt the paramedics, police officers and fire fighters found it amazing and incredible that a late model car's air bags would not deploy at this accident. A drunk driver hit the left side of my car. I was travelling at 40 miles per hour through an intersection when he tried to make a left turn. He hit me in the process and the impact was such that we had to take my wife to the emergency room to make sure she didn't have any internal injuries. I am just disappointed that the air bags, that are intended for these types of accidetns, did not deploy. If this is a manufacturer's defect then it is a matter that need to be addressed.
