Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was involved in a head on collision in my 2001 hyundai elantra, with a jeep wrangler, the front end of my car was badly damaged (have pictures), the damage was bad enough to for the insurance company to total my car. yet! neither one of my front air bags deployed in the crash. everyone who has seen my crashed elantra could not believe the air bags never deployed! luckily, i was not seriously injured, so that does say something for the elantra, but i still feel the air bags should have deployed. i'm just trying to prevent someone from getting really hurt in a crash, because of this possible defect. will be glad to provide more details if necessary! *nm
