Question:
I was in a accident where I slid into the rear end of someone I was going about 35 mph. and the air bags did not deploy and my seat belt did not lock up, so unfourtantly I ended up hitting the stearing wheel and the dashboard, that hurt! Was wondering if any one could tell me why that might happen and what I could do to fix the problem. I bought the car used and don't know for sure that it even has the airbags in it, though they are suposed to be there. The car is in the body shop right now and I was wondering if they could fix the problem with the seat belt?
Answers:
Can a car crash kill you at 20 mph?
Your airbag should not have deployed for that.Why is the passenger seat of a car more commonly known as the "shotgun"?
Make sure they check the sensors anyway to make sure they werent damaged or shifted in the crash (dealerships have a bad habit of not doing so in low speed crashes).
Also stress the seatbelt issue when you talk to them. If youre not satisfied with the answer tell your insurance company and again stress that you dont feel theyre safe and all that jazz.
