Consumer Description

I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT ON 10/13/2018. I WAS STRUCK ON THE DRIVERS SIDE, BACK OF MY 2011 FORD FIESTA. MY CAR SPUN AROUND AND FLIPPED AND ROLLED. DURING THIS TIME THE AIR BAGS DID NOT OPEN. I WAS TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN I WAS STRUCK GOING 60 -65 MPH. THE CAR THAT STRUCK ME WAS GOING MUCH FASTER, 80-85 MPH. I AM WONDERING WHY MY AIR BAGS DID NOT OPEN. ARE THERE ANY OTHER REPORTS LIKE MINE? MY CAR LANDED UPRIGHT IN A GRASSY MUDDY FIELD. I AM STILL BEING SEEN FOR MEDICAL TREATMENTS AND WAITING TO HEAR IF MY CAR IS A TOTAL LOSS OR REPAIRABLE.
