I was sitting at a red light on a city street when a car going over 60 mph hit the car behind me that was waiting for the same light, with such force it took out my drivers side rear end and was then pushed onto the medium and into oncoming traffic. the 2nd impact to my vehicle was the speeding car who then hit me and embedded itself into my rear end. at this time was the 3rd impact when i was pushed into the car in front of me waiting for the same light. the 4th impact is when i hit the car in lane to the right of me causing little damage to my car and theirs. being hit on every corner and rear, my car was a total loss and yet none of the airbags deployed.
Yakata recall. the airbags in my car did not deploy during an accident. the other driver ran a red light and hit me on the driver front of my car. it caused $11,884 worth of damage. when i saw the other driver was not stopping at the red light i applied my brakes but the collision happened and spun my car. my car was not on the recall list for airbags. i dont know why they did not deploy.
Tamara recall: the frontal airbags and seatbelt pretensioners failed to deploy during a crash to both the front and rear of my vehicle. all side airbags deployed during the crash. i was stopped behind a vehicle at a red light when a drunken driver slammed into my 2016 buick encore. my vehicle was propelled forward into the car in front of me. the shoulder harness of my seatbelt did not lock to restrain me and my frontal airbags did not deploy. my car had no open recalls on it. i did the 2016 recall correction but i don't remember getting notified of the second recall. my cars service has been exclusively at a buick dealership and don't recall ever being told or receiving any documentation reflecting correction for the 2017 recall. either way, my car had no open recalls at the time of the crash.
The vehicle was driving down a city street at approximately 35 - 40 mph. there was a glancing side impact to the drivers door, and all airbag curtains deployed. causing bruising, burns, sprain, and a concussion. the impact to the vehicle was minimal. the airbag module had been flashed already. the new modules are on back-order and may be several months/indefinite before it can be repaired.
