ES 300

I had a total loss car crash, a Lexus ES 300 on my way to college, my neck and back were affected and not even one airbag opened to protect the passengers, that thank god I was the only one, that tragic day. I bought that car, not for luxury but for the safety and security it offered and that in my case didn't work. My car has a defect and a very serious one. How many other Lexus might have the same defect? do someone will have to die to solve this.
