Consumer Description

TAKATA RECALL WHILE DRIVING THE CAR I WOULD NOTICE THAT THE STREERING WHEEL WOULD SWAY TO THE RIGHT OR LEFT INSTEAD OF BEING FIRMLY IT SEEMED AS IF IT WAS NOT STABLE ENOUGH. I WENT TO THE DEALER ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS BUT, THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. IN NOVEMBER 2016 THERE WAS A CRASH FROM A DUI INDIVIDUAL AND THE CAR WAS TOTALED. FOR THE LEVEL OF IMPACT; ALL THE AIRBAGS ON THE LEFT SIDE SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED. BUT, THEY DIDN'T. I DID FILE A COMPLAIN WITH THE CAR MANUFACTURER BUT, THEY SAID SINCE THE INITIAL IMPACT WAS NOT VELOCITY TO DEPLOY THE AIRBAGS, THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.
