When my volkswagon Jetta was broadsided at a signal light junction, none of the airbags front or side were activated. Also the rear side door flew off from the car and a result of which both my children were ejected and injured. The car is completely totalled.

There has been a constant problem with abnormal noise in the two front doors of the vehicle. So far the problem has not been fixed. No one seems to be able to or want to solve the problem. Nlm
