Complaint Summary

AIR BAGS

Owner Narrative

I WAS INVOLVED IN A HEAD ON COLLISION IN WHICH MY VEHICLE STRUCK TWO VEHICLES. THE FIRST VEHICLE MADE AN ILLEGAL LEFT HAND TURN IN FRONT OF MY VEHICLE AT A LIGHTED INTERSECTION. I WAS TRAVELING AT AN APPROXIMATE SPEED OF 50MPH ON A HIGHWAY INTERSECTION (POSTED SPEED LIMIT 55MPH). THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE OF MY VEHICLE STRUCK THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE FIRST VEHICLE (BLACK SEDAN PICTURED). MY VEHICLE CONTINUED TO STRIKE A SECOND VEHICLE (PICKUP IN PICTURE) THAT WAS STOPPED AT THE RED LIGHT OF THE CROSS STREET. MY SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED WHILE THE FRONT AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. SHOULD THE FRONT AIRBAG HAVE DEPLOYED? THERE WERE NO SERIOUS INJURIES, WHICH I AM GRATEFUL FOR, BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN TO SOMEONE ELSE. CRASH REPORT NUMBER 87-0070-87 IN WOOD COUNTY OHIO.
