"takata recall" my airbag light has been on for 6 months at the same time a rattle began in the area of the passenger side airbag. I received a card from tk holdings giving me a site to check if my airbag is recalled. The site does not work. The site indicated on the card is www.airbagrecall.com. a page comes up to enter VIN but when I enter it, it keeps kicking bag to the enter VIN page. I called the number and it tells me to go to that page. I need to know what to do.

I merged on to the freeway on ramp increasing my speed as normal. Witness states I was driving in the center of the street. All of a sudden my vehicle lost traction and starting swerving right and left as if a tire had blown out. I try to get control of the vehicle by letting off of the gas and steering straight when my steering wheel locked up and I was unable to move the steering wheel. I tried to hold the steering wheel straight as my car veered off the side of the freeway and rolled over once. I had three small children in the back seat buckled and secured and my car landed on its tires. No airbags deployed during the rollover accident and I was unable to get control of the vehicle due to the steering wheel being locked and the sudden loss of control. Once I had pulled my children out of the vehicle I noticed non of the tires had blown but my entire front end of my vehicle was destroyed. Prior to the accident there had been no noticeable problems with the car and the accident was due to a mechanical issue or faulty assembly of the vehicle.

It was raining and I was driving about 35 mph and I tried to brake so I could merge into the left lane but my steering wheel locked up and my car started sliding and I hit the back of another car. My whole front end was smushed, but my air bags didn't come out even though it was an extremely hard impact.
