Description of the problem	While driving on a rural road close to home i had to swerve to the left to avoid a deer in the road when i swerved left i instantly impacted a telephone pole and came to a violent stop without the airbag deploying to protect me. I suffered neck , back and hand injuries as well as a severe concussion. I will be forever afraid to drive another dodge vehicle or any vehicle in which my life is dependent on whether or not my airbag is going to open. The front end of the truck is pushed in to the engine block. Scary very very scary to think that there could be the same incident in the future that could result in death.
