Description of the problem	My wife and i were traveling in our chevy aveo 2009, going about 65mph on a fairly secluded state highway, when suddenly it felt as though we were on black ice. I tried continuing straight, but we were pulled violently to the right, hitting the cement barrier, which launched us left across both lanes of traffic. Fortunately there was no oncoming traffic at the time. When we hit the left shoulder, our car did a 180, and rolled 3 times, landing upright. I blacked out part way through the accident and awoke hunched over with my leg out the window. But we were both very fortunate to leave the accident alive, getting released from the hospital with only superficial injuries--cuts from the glass, minor headaches and soreness, etc. Our seatbelts were our saving grace. However, we noticed that none of the airbags ever deployed. From the significant body damage done to the aveo, we and the spectators who arrived to help us, expressed surprise that they never went off. Now 2 days later, we're beginning to experience greater pain in the lower back and upper legs, which we hope doesn't turn into something more serious and costly than originally determined. Would it be considered a defect for airbags, even side ones, to not deploy when getting hit at those speeds?
