#744517April 25, 2001
AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
MY QUESTION IS WHY DID THE AIR BAG NOT DEPLOY? THE DEALERSHIP REPORTED ON THIS FORM REPLACED THE CLOCK SPRING ON THE AIRBAG MAYBE 6 MONTHS TO A YEAR AGO. THEY ALSO SAID THAT THE BAG WOULD NOT DEPLOY UNLESS ACCIDENT WAS AT 28 MPH AND LIKE HITTING A STONE WALL WITHOUT BREAKING. MY SON REAR ENDED A NEON HITTING DIRECTLY IN THE CENTER OF THE TRUCK BUMPER CAUSING EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE TRUNK OF THE NEON. THE TRUCK DAMAGE IS THAT THE BUMPER MUST BE REPLACED AS IT BENT AND CRACKED ALONG WITH BENDING THE 1/4" BRACKESTS THAT ATTACH IT TO THE FRAME. THE GRILL ALSO NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I'M CONCERNED BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP COMMENTED THAT IF THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS NOT ON ITS OPERATING CORRECTLY ALONG WITH 28 MPH COMMENT. WHO'S TO SAY THE BULB IS NOT OUT OR THEY CONNECTED THE WIRES WHEN THE WORK WAS DONE OR IT'S JUST NOT OPERABLE. BEING A LIFE SAVING DEVISE I'M A BIT SHAKEN BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE A GOOD FEELING THAT IT WOULD DEPLOY. IS IT POSSIBLE TO CLARIFY IF WHAT THE DEALERSHIP SAID IS CORRECT THAT IT WOULD NOT DEPLOY UNLESS ACCIDENT WAS AT OR ABOVE 28 MPH? THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT GIVE ME THE IMPRESSION THEY WOULD LOOK AT IT EITHER UNLESS OF COURSE I WAS BILLED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE IN THIS MATTER.*AK
