“I was the third car in a five-car accident. I was at a complete stop and about 0.5 car length from the car in front of me when car number 2, a 2004 dodge dakota pickup, hit me from behind. My car, a 1999 XJ8L, sustained extensive damage in the rear, but only minor damage to the front section, no damage to body sheet metal; only one bumper shock needs replaced. The driver?????s air bag did not deploy. My concern is that the driver?????s seat collapse into the rear bench seat. …”
