AIR BAGS:SIDE/WINDOW
I WAS HIT IN THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR BY A MAROON FORD THAT RAN A STOP SIGN WHICH WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 40/45 MPH AT IMPACT. I CALLED THE DEALER, SPOKE TO A MAN THAT SAID THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THE SIDE AIR BAGS SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED:I FAXED THEM ALL INFO FROM THE PURCHASE OF THE CAR & ASKED THEM TO PLEASE COME LOOK AT THE CAR; NO ONE CAME TO LOOK AT THE CAR. HONDA SAYS THEY HAVE NO INFORMATION AT ALL TO GIVE ME & THE DEALER SAYS NOW IT IS TOO LATE FOR ANY HELP FROM THEM. I HAVE PICTURES & THE INSURANCE AGENTS SAID BOTH BAGS SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED AS WELL. THE DRIVER & PASSANGER DOOR TO INCLUDE THE FRONT PART OF THE FRAME BY THE TIRE HAD TO BE CUT OFF. I FEEL I HAVE BEEN TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BECAUSE I AM A WOMAN & I AM FRIENDS WITH THE MANAGER OF THE DEALERSHIP. PLEASE HELP ME GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS. MY INSURANCE COMPANY IS USAA & THEY GAVE ME YOUR ADDRESS. THANK YOU. ANGELA SUGGS-BARTOS. *AK
