- Lake Worth, FL, USA

I was involved in two separate accidents involving animals and the airbags did not deploy. November 2009 a head on deer collision at 70 miles per hour. Vehicle had over $5000 worth of damage. December 2010 a turkey was hit head on in flight at 60 miles per hour with no airbag deployment. We felt that the airbags should have deployed and are very concerned with safety in a more serious non-giving collision.

I was hit head-on by a mid-sized sedan which drilled my license plate back to the firewall. The driver's side airbag failed to deploy, despite the speed (me 45, her 20) and the driver's shoulder harness failed to restrain me. I crushed the steering column with my chest and had to be removed with the jaws of life. Honda sent a technician who declared a faulty seatbelt and faulty airbag sensor. The vehicle sustained over $15,000 damage, was fully repaired, although my insurance paid for it, not Honda. I sustained multiple soft-tissue injuries, broken ribs and a dislocated shoulder. I continue with therapy almost three years later.

I was involved in a 5 car accident in which my 2003 Honda CRV ex was rear-ended at 60 mph, I was pushed into another vehicle and sustained both front and rear damage totaling over $12,000. My airbag failed to deploy. I am now in physical therapy three times a week for a back injury that occurred upon impact. I also missed a week of work due to my injury. My vehicle has been in the process of being repaired for 3 weeks. It is currently at a dealership and I was told that my seat belt is locked and needs to be replaced and there is a problem with the SRS safety system including my airbags. I was in complete shock that such an impact would not deploy the airbags and now I understand why. Apparently the dearlership at lia Honda in enfield, ct that is doing the safety check were also surprised the airbags did not deploy. I believe I would have walked away without injury if my safety features on my vehicle worked properly.

I was hit by a vehicle in November 2003 (while waiting at a traffic light) that was hit by a car that ran a red light which caused $10,000 damage to the front of my car. In the accident my right arm was injured and eventually was operated on. The airbag in my car did not deploy even though the car was hit squarely in the front at a high rate of speed and I think the airbag unit is defective.
