On 9/16, I was involved in an accident which lead to my car being totaled from appx $30,000 in damage. Traffic came to a stop on the interstate and I ended up rear ending a car which caused the following damage: Engine was ripped from motor mounts and shoved into firewall, cracked engine block, whole front end of car was damaged including side fenders and drivers door unable to open smoothly, crushed A/C compressor, and many other items under the hood. (I have more pictures from the collision center upon request). With the severity of the damage, there is no doubt the airbags should have deployed. However, not a single airbag went off in this vehicle. I can provide estimates from the collision center with all items damaged along with pictures. I would have attached but size limits prevent me. I'm lucky I was not injured but someone else might not be as fortunate as myself.
