“I purchased a 2015 Chrysler 300 in may of 2015 brand new; on april 18,2016 I swerved to keep from hitting a deer in which the vehicle rolled over twice.

NHTSA complaint #10865257, filed 2016-05, 15,000 miles“My wife was in an accident where she was hit in the driver's side at her door, rear passenger door and front fender while turning left at an intersection. Impact was 35-40 MPH. Not one airbag deployed. She hit her head and shoulder on window causing severe pain to her head,neck and collar bone, and we want to know why the airbags did not deploy. We feel this may have caused more problems from her impact. I'm sure we paid for this feature in the car and want to know why they didn't work.”
