Consumer Description

MY SON WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT WHERE HE REAR ENDED THE CAR IN FRONT OF HIM AT APPROXIMATELY 35 TO 40 MPH. THE AIRBAG IN THE STEERING WHEEL DID NOT DEPLOY!! LUCKILY, HE WAS WEARING HIS SEAT BELT AND SUFFERED BRUISING ON HIS HIP AND SHOULDER. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I HAVE VIEWED OTHER REPORTS ONLINE THAT REPORTED THE SAME THING WHERE THE BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY....UPDATED 01/07/15 *BF
