Sunfire 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • miles
I was on route 65 in North sewickely in Pennsylvania. I was stopped due to another driver in front of me making a left hand turn. A car came from behind hitting me and I was propelled in front of oncoming traffic which hit the front end of my car. The air bags did not deploy from the head on collision. I received multiple bruises and sprained neck and shoulder. I have pain to my abdomen due to the seat belt, I had on. Nothing, my car was totaled due to this accident. I have a call into GM because this is the second accident in this car which the air bag did not deploy. The other one was a few months of buying the car brand new in 2000. When a deer ran in front of me on interstate 19. Smashing the front end the air bags did not deploy then either. I was traveling about 50 mph when the deer hit me. I had on my safety belt.
