Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On feb. 15 2005 i was driving a 2003 cavalier when. as i was driving and switching lines my light turned red and i did not realize it. i went through causing a head on collision with another car. my complaint is that the air bags on my car did not deploy after the accident. my speed was somewhere between 14-20 m.p.h. the vehicle i hit was making a turn at about ten m.p.h. or so. the bumper of my car is completely off and is now being repaired. i was not severely injured but i was very appalled at how the air bags did not deploy. i could not imagine what would have happened if i was not wearing my seat belt. i believe that the airbags are faulty and i also plan to file a lawsuit. *nm
