1) 2005 mb C230K 4 door sedan vehicle - on board computer reported SRS failure. 2) vehicle taken to dealership to address SRS failure reported by computer. Dealership reportedly repaired under warranty. Failure notice no longer being reported by on board computer. 3) front side collision occurred today 11/12/05 - was hit by another vehicle traveling approx. 35 mph - no airbags, including side impact air bag, deployed on my vehicle, but both deployed on the other vehicle. Note my vehicle, due to impact, was turned 90 degrees from impact to front of my vehicle - police officer reported incident from his experience definitely should have deployed side, possibly front, airbag on my car.
