My daughter and son were in an accident as a passenger in a scion tc 2009 and the car rolled multiple times and both the front and back passenger seat belts unlatched and the passenger curtain airbag did not deploy or inflate. With these defects, my daughters legs were trapped under the car and sustained traumatic bone damage in which her prognosis at this time is unknown.

Currently she had an ex fix on her left leg and two plates and pins placed on her fibula, the physicians say she will never walk the same and she currently is unable to bear any weight on either foot due to the fracutes sustained from her being ejected from the car because of the seatbelt release and the failure of deployment of the side curtain air bag.

Takata recall... As I was driving speed limit (60-65mph) on the freeway at around 11:30pm (10/21/16), driving on the 2nd lane. There was some debris on the road as I hit a pot hole my rear passenger tire pops. I instantly lose control as I see the semi-truck in the 3rd lane (truck lane). I tried to avoid the truck but the car took me into that direction. As my car slightly went under the truck, the trucks rear passenger tires ram over the top of the passenger side of the hood and my air bags never deployed. As I was under the truck I somehow get out of it and spin out until the car is complete stopped. When completely stopped, I am facing traffic coming towards my direction. Since the airbags didn't deploy it was an unsafe situation. Safety is everybody concerns and at the time my life could've been at risk. No other cars were involved in this accident but me and the semi-truck, but the semi-truck never stopped at the scene.
