Medical attention was received. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to a tow yard. The vehicle was deemed and destroyed by the insurance company. The manufacturer was contacted and notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 30,000 The contact stated that of all the airbags, none of them deployed at the time of the accident.

I was involved in a side collision accident and my car was determined to be total loss by the At-Fault's insurance company. I was lucky that my son and I came out with bruises and a few scratches but the main problem here is the airbags. It DID NOT deploy at all when it was hit. The force hit us from lane 1 all the way to lane 3 and damages to the structure near cabin was found by one of the vertified accident body shop. So yes, no airbags were deployed.

THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THERE WAS NO RECALL EITHER. I DON'T KNOW IF THERE IS AN ISSUE OR NOT BUT I WOULD HATE TO SEE SOMEONE GET HURT BECAUSE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY SEE PHOTO OF DAMAGE. HAVE PICTURES BUT SIZE PROBLEM DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO REDUCE SIZE

I WAS INVOLVED IN THE INTERSECTION MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENT. WHEN I WAS T-BONED BY OTHER VEHICLE (MY VEHICLE WAS GOING 30-45 MILES/HOUR, AND MOVING) AND THE OTHER VEHICLE (WHO CAUSED AN ACCIDENT) WAS ALSO GOING 30-45 MILES/ HOUR. WHEN THERE WAS AN IMPACT TO MY RIGHT SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. MY REAR PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WAS NOT DEPLOYED. DAMAGES DONE TO THE CAR IS MY RIGHT SIDE PASSENGER SIDE (FRONT AND REAR) WAS DAMAGED AND UNABLE TO OPEN OR CLOSE. *TR

PULLED INTO HOTEL PARKING LOT AT 11:05AM (PERFECT WEATHER - PARKING LOT EMPTY) AND ,AFTER TURNING INTO THE PARKING SPOT AT A SLOW SPEED, THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND HIT THE SIDE OF THE HOTEL. THE BUILDING WASN'T DAMAGED, BUT THE CAR HAD SERIOUS FRONTAL DAMAGE. THE HOTEL MANAGER DIDN'T CALL THE POLICE SO THERE ISN'T A POLICE REPORT. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT GO OFF. I FEEL THERE WERE SEVERAL POSSIBLE LEXUS PROBLEMS WITH THIS INCIDENT: THE AIR BAGS DID NOT GO OFF EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS OVER $17,000 IN REPAIRS (EVEN THE ENGINE HAD TO BE REMOVED),; THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM DIDN'T ENGAGE; AND THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION OF THE CAR FROM A SLOW ENTRY INTO THE PARKING SPACE. CURRENTLY THE CAR IS AT A LEXUS DEALER WAITING FOR THE LEXUS HIRED INSPECTOR TO EXAMINE IT. WE HAVE PICTURES AND A COMPLETE LIST OF REPAIRS IF REQUESTED. W E DO NOT HAVE A REPORT YET FROM THE LEXUS INSPECTION BECAUSE IT HASN'T BEEN INSPECTED YET. ...*BF..*JB
