 Description of the problemOn january 30, 2017 another vehicle pulled out in front of me and stopped. I hit that vehicle with my 2016 jeep wrangler at about 30-35mph. The impact totaled both vehicles. My jeep's frame was buckled and twisted all of the way to the rear bumper. The rear body mount bolt were even bent. The airbags didn't deploy and the seat belts didn't pretension. I hit the dash with both knees and got abdominal muscle injuries as well as severe whiplash. I am still under a doctor's care for my injuries including a pinched nerve between c5-c6. Fca opened an investigation and sent me a letter stating that "the rate of deceleration necessary to activate the air bag and air bag system was not present during this accident". The impact buckled my frame and totaled a 5 month old vehicle, but fca wants me to believe that it wasn't severe enough for the air bags to deploy. Fca is either being deceptive or their vehicles are simply unsafe. Either way, due to their deceptive actions, it is impossible to know how many accidents are truly related to this vehicle defect. I found out about the recall (s76) the week after my accident when i filed a complaint with fca. My vehicle was in the dealership for its first oil change two weeks after this recall was issued, but it wasn't repaired and i wasn't informed of a recall. I received my recall notice today, 74 days after my accident. I have the police report, pictures of the jeep and the frame, the insurance adjuster's cell phone number as well as all correspondence with fca, should you want it...
