Was on my way to class, was hit on passenger front side of car, then hit head on by sitting truck, air bags never deployed (have pictures to prove this), and I have been disabled from work with ongoing daily pain. If airbag would have deployed I know I wouldn't have been thrown around in the car like I was.

A crack approx 10 inches in length to the left of the passenger side airbag and a new crack just started to the right of the airbag. I've contacted Chrysler two years ago only to be told tuff luck. They wouldn't even consider paying for materials. It scares me as I'm afraid that it's a safety hazard. My car is parked in a garage and well maintained. I only have 69,000 miles on it and when I complained I only had approx 40,000 miles on it. Not sure of the exact incident date so I've just added one so that I could proceed.
