DURING A TOTAL FRONTAL COLLISION, WHERE MY MAZDA REAR-ENDED A LEXUS SUV, AT A SPEED B/T 25 AND 30 MPH, THE FRONTAL AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THERE WAS OVER $5600 WORTH OF DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END OF MY CAR DUE TO THE FORCE OF THE COLLISION. HOWEVER, THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I SUFFERED MUSCULAR AND COMPRESSION INJURIES IN THIS COLLISION. MEDICAL CARE WAS SOUGHT FOR THESE INJURIES. THESE INJURIES MAY HAVE BEEN PREVENTED HAD THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED CORRECTLY. DURING THE COLLISION, I WENT UNDERNEATH THE SUV AND THEREFORE THE LOWEST PART OF THE FRONT BUMPER WAS NOT TOUCHED. HOWEVER, THE REST OF THE FRONT END SUFFERED MUCH DAMAGE. THE AIRBAG SENSORS MUST BE LOCATED IN THIS LOWER BUMPER AREA. THIS IS NOT GOOD, IF I WOULD HAVE HIT THE SUV HARDER, I WOULD HAVE STILL GONE UNDER THEIR TRUNK AND WOULD HAVE POSSIBLY SUFFERED MORE DAMAGES BUT WITHOUT THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYING BECAUSE THE SENSORS WOULD HAVE STILL BEEN LOCATED TOO LOW TO BE ACTIVATED.*AK

MY SON HIT A TELEPHONE POLE AFTER HE HIT SOME BLACK ICE. HE WAS GOING ABOUT 30MPH AND THE AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. I HAVE PICTURES OF THE CAR INSIDE AND OUT IF YOU WOULD LIKE FOR ME TO FORWARD THEM TO YOU. MAZDA IS REALLY PASSING THE BUCK. I AM THANKFUL MY SON ONLY HAD A BROKEN WRIST AND HAD TO HAVE SURGERY TO PUT A SCREW IN. IT COULD HAVE BEEN A FATALITY. I WOULDN'T WANT ANOTHER FAMILY TO GO THROUGH SOMETHING LIKE THIS. PLEASE CONTACT ME WITH ANY INFORMATION YOU MAY HAVE TO GET SOME RESULTS OUT OF MAZDA. THANKS AGAIN!!
