Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: We were involved in an automobile accident while driving a 2003 trailblazer xt. a driver turned in front of us at an intersection on a busy highway while we had a green light. i slammed on the brakes slowing down to what we believe to be around 35 miles per hour, and we hit head on into the side of his range rover. neither front airbag deployed. i sustained a broken right foot and multiple bruises to my knees. i also hit the steering wheel with my chest and had many bruises to my chest. i am doing physical therapy for the injury my shoulder sustained from hitting the steering wheel. the car has around $10,000 worth of damage to the front end. i remember officials on the scene were surprised our air bags did not deploy and encouraged us to look into that. i am scared to have the car back. if a head-on collision like that will not deploy my airbags, what will? can i trust them if i'm in an even more severe accident. i know they are not supposed to go off at the least little accident, but i would not term this a small accident. *ak |
