Description of the problem	On friday october 23 a drunk driver lost control of his 2011 camaro crossed the median on a city street and barreled into my sons 2012 hyundai veloster. While the camaro air bags inflated, our veloster did not. According to hyundai diagram there are two sensors in the front drivers side, neither worked. Though my son and his passenger walked away, i am concerned that these sensors/air bags are defective and should be looked into. Our vehicle was pushed back several feet after the impact and they did not deploy. I am concerned about the safety of these vehicles protecting lives. One of the reasons i bought this car was due the many airbags. I am disappointed and concerned about this possible defect... Updated 12/11/15 *bf
