Consumer Description

I HAD STOPPED AT A SIGNAL LIGHT AND WAS HIT IN AN FRONT /HEAD ON CRASH THERE WAS NO AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT - THECAR WAS DEEMED AS A TOTAL LOST PER MY INSURANCE THE DAMAGE WAS FRONT LEFT FINDER - HOOD = BUMPER - GRILL LEFT SUSPENSION PARTS RADIATOR OIL COOLER AND FRAME I FEEL THAT IF THE CAR IS GOING TO SUSTAIN THAT MUCH DAMAGE THE CAR WOULD HAVE DEPLOYED THE AIR BAGS. I HAVE SEEN CARS THAT THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED WHEN HIT HARD ENOUGH TO SCUFF THE FRONT BUMPER ALSO THE HORN WOULD LIKE TO STICK WHEN DEPRESSED SOME TIME THE HORN WOULD SOUND SOME TIME THE HORN WOULD NOT MAKE ANY SOUND TILL YOU BEAT THE DARN THING. *TR
