 Description of the problemToyota camry vin [xxx]. Toyota case #[xxx] police incident:[xxx] this is to inform you that my wife ended up a severe car accident dated 9-7-2017. The toyota camry le 2016 car which was on lease from the toyota f over 20 months completely totaled out. The car was hit on the non driver rear seat by the other car while turning. The impact was of at least 30-40 m/hr of the speed. Above car spinned 180 degree ended up stopping due to road side pavement in the opposite road. The impacted side wheel was broken and rotated out. The impact was severe but the air bags mainly on the driver side front and rear seat did not open at all. The remaining open bag was floppy. Being a medical physician, this is surprising and disturbing to me. As the most fatal car injury occur due to the deceleration injuries due to steering wheel impact that can lead major vessel like aorta / heart rupture. I see it as the manufacturing defect in the car. In the back, both baby car seats were damaged . Fortunately, my wife dropped my children 0. 3 mile before the accident site to the day care who is a 4 month old infant. I am very sure that if any of my children would be in the back seat, the consequences could be life threatening. S. My wife has a chest pain and back pain deceleration injury causing front chest pain, head concussion and other injuries related. I expect safety should be the priority when come to human life. We were planning to keep this car as we spend lease money in to it. However due to the accident and total loss of car. It has effected our financial situation to buy a new car. This is effecting our work as we ended up in urgent situation to spend thousands of dollar to purchase a new car. I have read the nhtsa information about the car bags and other detailed which further confirms my doubt. Thanks. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
