Consumer Description

MY 2016 JEEP RENEGADE WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT OCTOBER 4TH, VEHICLE TOTALED BUT NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED EVEN THOUGH THE RENEGADE WAS ON AND THERE WAS A PASSENGER (BUCKLED IN) IN THE VEHICLE. HAD FCA RUN THEIR 'INVESTIGATION' THOUGH THEY WILL NOT SHARE THE RESULTS OF WHICH WITH ME EVEN THOUGH I'VE ASKED. THEIR RESPONSE 'YOUR REQUEST FOR OUR INSPECTION REPORT IS PROPRIETARY, PAID FOR BY US, BELONGS TO US, AND THEREFORE, UNAVAILABLE FOR DISTRIBUTION. IF YOU DISAGREE WITH OUR HANDLING, YOU CERTAINLY HAVE THE RIGHT TO HIRE YOUR OWNER INSPECTOR, AT YOUR EXPENSE, TO EXAMINE THE VEHICLE . WE HAVE CLOSED THE FILE REGARDING THIS MATTER.' BOTH MY INSURANCE ADJUSTER AND BODY SHOP (WHO ASKED FOR THE INVESTIGATION) STATED THAT BASED ON THE IMPACT (CRUSHED REAR AND DRIVER SIDE) SHOULD HAVE SET OFF THE AIRBAGS THOUGH THEY DIDN'T AND THE PASSENGER WAS INJURED, WHY WON'T THEY SHARE THE REPORT?
