Description of the problem	We were involved in a motor vehicle accident on 01/25/2020 where we experienced a front impact collision, and the airbags did not deploy. We were in motion in the left turning lane of a two lane road, the adverse vehicle pulled out from a parking lot on the right, crossed two lanes of traffic right into the front of our vehicle causing us to collide. The force of the collision was so hard that the engine mount on the top side has broken away from the engine, i projected forward and my glasses flew from my face. My wife and i have bumps and bruises, issues with our backs, shoulder and wrist pain. During the imppact the airbags failed to deploy. The insurance adjuster has declared the vehicle a total loss. When we spoke with the body shop they stated that they could not believe that the airbags did not go off with this type of impact.
