Description of the problem	My 2005 dodge ram quad cab hydroplaned on the interstate and struck a retaining wall almost head on. The entire left side front bumper from the very middle to the far left struck the wall flush. The truck bounced off and did a 540 and the engine died and i was stuck blocking three lanes of interstate traffic. I impacted the wall around 55 mph. The problem is that my airbags never deployed. Neither the driver or passenger side air bags. I was lucky that i wasn't injured, but i feel there was a defect with the air bags not deploying. The impact was so hard on the bumper that it buckled the frame of my truck.
