Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was driving to work on rt 8 in butler, pa. a deer ran into my car, hitting the front end. i was going about 50 mph. i slammed on the brakes and got out to look at my car. the front bumper was completely smashed, along with the bumper being folded, ac condenser broke, grille broke,radiator broke. i got back in my car and noticed the air bag symbol was on but by air bags didn't deploy. i wasn't wearing a seat belt and i was the only one in the car. my seat belts locked up for some reason and the air bags didn't go off. i called the chevy company and asked them why, and they told me that you need to hit the car in a certain spot on the car, but a mechanic told me usually if the rebar is cracked the air bags go off. they said there is nothing they can do about it. i paid the car off and i didn't have full coverage. so my car is practically garbage. i think they should at least fix the air bag problem and the seat belts. *jb
