Elantra

  • 320 miles
After entering into a parking lot from a 30 mile per hour street with a brand new car of less than 48 hours, turned and jammed the brakes. Both the driver and passenger air bags deployed. No collision, so scratch on the car and nothing hit either under or on the side of the car.

Elantra

  • 150 miles
Airbags did not deploy during a crash. My daughter was operating a Hyundai Elantra and rear-ended another vehicle. (approx speed 35) her vehicle was totaled. The airbags did not deploy, but the seatbelts saved her. Her chest is extremely bruised from the impact.
