problem #2

May 172007

Liberty 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 48,000 miles
I had a very serious car accident where the 2004 Jeep Liberty sport rolled over several times after swerving on the highway going 68 mph. The front airbags did not go off in this kind of crash. There was no front impact. However, the vehicle was equipped with side curtain airbags which did not go off. I was very surprised that they did not go off in this kind of impact when there was clear impact on the driver side and passenger side doors, both the driver and passanger side door windows shattered. The vehicle had been totaled. I believe there was additional bruising and head impact of the driver and passanger due the side curtain airbags not going off.
