Description of the problem | Owner was driving with snow on the road and hit a slick spot that had ice. The vehicle started sliding sideways out of control off the highway. The car continued off the road, into a ditch, and hit a tree. The entire front end of the car was damaged; the hood was smashed, grill fell off, part of front bumper detached, headlight out of place. We were traveling around 50 mph when we ran off the highway. Neither of the front air bags deployed. It was a front end impact and we were traveling fast enough that the air bags should have deployed. This has to be a defect of the air bags. |
