Takata recall, my wife was involved in a frontal collision at @35mph in which her airbags did not deploy. I am concerned that since the sensors were knocked off during the impact, what could have happened to prevent the airboys from deploying? she was traveling at 35 mph into an intersection when she ran a red light and T-boned another vehicle. Fortunately the vehicle she hit was a Jeep Wrangler with a steel side bumper on all sides. So there way minimal damage to the Jeep.
