Is there was an expiration date on the air bag recall for this vehicle? i have tried to get the recall repaired, but the dealer didn't have anymore parts in stock. that was last summer, and now they are backed up with appointments. i am not complaining about the dealer. i just want to make sure the time does not run out for the repairs to be done on this vehicle.

I was pulling out of a shopping mall turning left on the hwy 5 in holly springs ga when i was struck by another vehicle that ran a red light. the impact to my truck was just in front of the drivers side front wheel. the bumper was crushed all the way to the frame and the frame was bent over 1 foot. the truck had both front and side air bags and none of them went off. my head hit the side of the drivers window and doctors are saying i may need both shoulder and neck surgery. i believe this would not be the case if the air bags had deployed. while i was not traveling very fast,the other car was traveling fast enough to total my truck
