2017 MITSUBISHI MIRAGE G4 Complaints

MY AIRBAG LIGHT IN THE DASH IS ALWAYS LIT. THE DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE $120 JUST TO LOOK AT IT. I'M SEEING OTHER PEOPLE SAY THAT THEIR CAR HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AND SOME HAVE HAD ACCIDENTS AND THEIR AIR BAGS ARE NOT DEPLOYING. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 MITSUBISHI MIRAGE G4. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, ANOTHER VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE REAR DRIVER SIDE AND PUSHED THE VEHICLE INTO A THIRD VEHICLE IMPACTING THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE. NONE OF THE FRONTAL AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THE CONTACT AND A PASSENGER WERE TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL BY AMBULANCE. THE CONTACT HAD BRUISES ON THE CHEST AND OTHER AREAS OF THE BODY. THE PASSENGER SUSTAINED A HEAD CONCLUSION AND BRUISES ON THE LEGS. THE DRIVER ON THE THIRD VEHICLE DIED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BY THE POLICE IMPOUND LOT PENDING INVESTIGATION. A POLICE REPORT NUMBER 2017-7-392-1517 WAS FILED. THE MITSUBISHI NIMAY DEALER IN CAGUAS, PUERTO RICO WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND THEY ADVISED THE CONTACT TO CALL MANUFACTURER HEADQUARTERS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65.

I WAS STOPPED IN TRAFFIC WHEN I WAS REAR ENDED BY A DRIVER DOING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH ON A 3 LANE PARKWAY, WHICH CAUSED ME TO CRASH INTO THE CAR RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. THE COLLISION WAS VIOLENT ENOUGH TO CAUSE BRUISING ON MY BICEP AND UPPER THIGHS AND KNOCKED MY HEARING AIDS ONTO THE DASH. THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY AND THE SEAT BELT INERTIAL REEL DID NOT ACTIVATE PROPERLY AS MY HEAD WAS ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN IT FINALLY CAUGHT. I DO NOT KNOW IF THE SEATBELT REACHED THE END OF ITS LENGTH, OR THE INERTIAL REEL FINALLY LOCKED, BUT WHEN IT DID STOP ME, THE LAP BELT WAS ON MY UPPER THINGS, THE SHOULDER STRAP WAS DOWN ACROSS MY ARM AND STOMACH AND MY HEAD WAS UP OVER THE STEERING WHEEL HEADED FOR THE FRONT WINDOW. I BELIEVE THIS EXACERBATED MY LOWER BACK INJURY BY CAUSING A SEVERE TWISTING MOMENT AS OPPOSED TO BEING RESTRAINED PROPERLY IN THE SEAT.
