Description of the problem | Vehicle spun and hit guard rail on interstate 90 head on , then also on right side but the air bags never deployed!!! We had previous accidents involving both a 2005 sonata and 2007 elantra in which the air bags also failed to deploy. In fact, the insurance company for the 2005 accident spent almost $10,000 to repair the car rather than total it and specifically stated to me that they would have totaled the vehicle had the air bags deployed. |
