2002 Chevrolet Tahoe Air bags Problems

“Traffic stopped in front of me unexpectedly, I swerved to avoid car in front of me and hit concrete wall. Air bags did not work. My face hit steering wheel, causing injury to nose and mouth.”

“I was traveling down to freeway, doing about 65-70 MPH. I was rear ended by a guy going between 100-110 MPH, I was thrown out of control. I hit the center divider almost head on at about 70 MPH. I then bounced off the divider, came clear agcross all lanes and hit the rear guard rail, I bounded off that and rolled on its side. In all my air bags never deployed.”

“I was driving my 2002 chevy Tahoe, a gentleman ran a stop sign, I hit him at 39 MPH, head on in my Tahoe, t-boned his truck. Neither airbag deployed, nor did my seatbelt keep me from hitting the steering wheel and my head knocking me out. Gm sent someone to look at my car which has been deemed a total loss. I have yet to hear back from GM on this incident. I purchased this car brand new thinking it was safe. The one time I needed my seatbelt to work, it failed. …”

“Had a front end collision into the side of another vehicle whom ran a red light. We estimated our impact speed at 30 MPH upon colliding together. Neither front airbags deployed. Suffered neck and back bruising and muscle strain.”

“On my wife's way home form work she was involved in an accident, were she rear ended another vehicle, the crash was at about 35 to 45 miles per hour and it affected the front driver side of our 2002 chevy Tahoe. The impact was so significant that the frame of the Tahoe was bent. The crash pretty much mimicked the same off center front crash that the insurance institute for highway safety conducts on their testing. The problem was that the front airbags never deployed although the accident happened unexpectedly, my wife was wearing her seat belt and didn't sustained serious injuries. …”
