HAD CAR ACCD. SEAT BELTS DIDN'T TIED UP AND AIR BAGS DIDN'T COME OUT
ON FEB 15, 2018 AT ABOUT 2:00 P.M. MY VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A COLLISION. MY SON WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET, AND REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE GOING ABOUT 25 MPH. THE FRONT BUMPER WAS DAMAGED AND THE FRONT AIR BAG DIDN'T DEPLOY. DUE TO THE EXTENT OF THE DAMAGE I BELIEVE THE AIR BAG SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED.I AM LOOKING FOR HELP INVESTIGATING THIS.
I GOT A TAKATA NOTICE IN THE MAIL SAYING I'M A REGISTERED OWNER OF ONE OF THEIR VEHICLES WITH THE TAKATA AIRBAG AND MY AIRBAG ALERT IS RED ON MY DASHBOARD BUT THERE'S BEEN NO RECALL. PLEASE INVESTIGATE WHETHER THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL.
