NHTSA complaint #11372777, filed 2020-11, 2 miles“Air bags did not deploy. Not a single air bag went off. I could've died. I was going 65mph when I dropped something and went to pick it up and I lost control of the vehicle striking the guard rail on the left side, then thrown into the right side of the roads guard rail where I stopped finally. The fire department were shocked the air bags didnt go off because every single one should have. I'm hurt from this incident and possibly could've been less injured had the air bags deployed”
