Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The vehicle was moving in the a highway, when I was involve in a chain collision. The car in front of me hit the car in front of her. I hit the breaks, but I hit the car. The air bags did not activate, even when the car damage was substancial.”

NHTSA complaint #11083920, filed 2018-04, 54,500 miles

“Was driving home around 6am after a rainy night when I took a turn and the front tires lost traction resulting in the front right passenger side striking a curb. The car was only going about 15 MPH when this occurred and there is minimal damage however the entire passenger side airbags deployed causing minor whiplash and bruising to the passenger although it feels as if it could have been much worse. I'm mainly concerned with the airbag because I feel that if it didn't go off, there would have been no injury under these circumstances.”

NHTSA complaint #11287957, filed 2019-12, 55,765 miles

“The car was in motion. While the passenger was in the car sitting straight up right in the car, when the air bag illuminated. When a passenger is not in the car the light does not illuminate.”

NHTSA complaint #10917457, filed 2016-10, 30 miles
