I had slammed on my breaks to avoid rear ending someone and I slid down the bridge and ended up rearending them. My front end was smashed up but no airbags deployed. My wife was driving our 2018 Ford Fiesta hatchback and totaled the front in by hitting a pole and the air bags did not deploy as well. We are highly dissatisfied that the airbags have yet to deploy when they should.
