MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE WAS IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT THIS PAST WEEK. MY SON WAS DRIVING AND THE REAR ABRUPTLY WENT TO THE RIGHT AND HE LOST CONTROL AND SKIDDED ACROSS A ROAD INTO A SOFT SHOULDER/EMBANKMENT CAUSING SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE, THE CAR THEN FLIPPED/ROLLED OVER LANDING ON IT'S ROOF. THERE ENDED UP BEING SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE TO MOST OF THE VEHICLE. UPON INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE BY US ON THE FOLLOWING DAY WE DID NOTICE THAT THE RIGHT REAR TIRE HAD BLOWN OUT, I ASSUME THIS CAUSED THE ABRUPT VEERING TO THE RIGHT DESCRIBED ABOVE. MY SON HAD HIS SEAT BELT ON AND LUCKILY HAD ONLY MINOR INJURIES. MY CONCERN/QUESTION IS WHY THE AIR BAGS DID NOT GO OFF. THIS INCLUDES THE ONES BUILT INTO THE FRONT PILLARS AND THOSE ON THE SIDE DESIGNED TO PROTECT THE OCCUPANTS HEAD AND ARM, ETC. BTW: THIS VEHICLE WAS RECALLED FOR THE DEFECTIVE GAS PEDAL/FLOOR MATS AND WAS SCHEDULED TO HAVE THE RECALL/REPAIR COMPLETED ON 7/29/10. PHOTO'S WERE TAKEN BY HIM OF THE DAMAGE. *TR
