2017 Ram 1500 Air Bags & Restraints Problems

Was traveling at least 45mph. Car pulled out in front of me. Had impact on passenger front side of my truck.

Air bag light is on and doesn't disappear. It says service air bags soon.

We were involved in an accident and the air bags did not deploy. We were turning left and another vehicle went through a red light and hit my 2017 Dodge RAM 1500. The other vehicle was traveling at a high rate and and collided with the front of our truck. I'm very shocked that the airbags did not deploy.

I was involved in an accident where a car pulled out in front of me causing my truck to T-bone them. I estimate I was traveling at 40 mph or so at the time of impact. My airbags did not deploy during this impact. I have never had an issue with the air bag system on this vehicle, but believe the dealership had performed a recall or flashed some software within the last 3 years pertaining to the airbag. I'm not sure if the computer detected the impact and decided not to deploy the airbags, or if they should have deployed and the system was faulty? I am a larger man and am glad the seatbelt restrained me, but am afraid someone with smaller stature, or unable to brace themselves before impact would not have faired as well. As it is, I am on day 4 of neck, back and whole body aches and whiplash which has caused a constant unbearable headache with light and sound sensitivity in the harsh summer that probably could have been lessened had the airbag stopped me?

I have water leaking out of both front grip airbags. My warranty started in 2019 as I bought the vehicle new from the dealer. They said this is not covered under the warranty. It is a safety issue and I believe it should be covered.

WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK ON WET ROADS RAINED THE NIGHT BEFORE AND WAS RAINING THAT MORNING, I ROUNDED THE LAST CURVED ON A 30 MPH ROAD AND I WAS ONLY DOING BETWEEN 25 TO 28 I STARTED SLIDING AND TURNED MY WHEEL LEFT HANDED SO HARD THAT IT BROKE THE MULTI FUNCTION SWITCH AND HIT HEAD ON INTO A TREE IT LIFTED THE REAR OF MY TRUCK UP AND SLAMMED IT BACK DOWN I HAD 300 LBS OF SAND RATCHET STRAPPED WITH 2 RACHET STRAPS THE SAND BAGS ARE NOW AT THE CAB PART OF THE BED. NO MESSAGE LIGHTS OF ANY KIND WERE ON THE DASH PRIOR TO THIS ACCIDENT AND MY FRONT AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW THAT'S POSSIBLE WITH HITTING A FIRM OBJECT AT 25 MPH TO 28 MPH. THE INSURANCE COMPANY IS INVOLVED WITH THE ACCIDENT AND THE TRUCKS WAS TOWED TO A BODY SHOP BUT NO WORK HAS BEEN PERFORM ON IT AS OF YET BECAUSE I REQUESTED THE AIRBAGS BE INVESTIGATED.

Was in an accident on 7/8/2022. A vehicle pulled out in front of us and the speed we was traveling at was 45 mph at the time of the impact and airbag’s did not deploy.

Air bags deployed while vehicle was parked and engine not running….vehicle was not hit or tampered with ..I was inside vehicle vacuuming when air bags went off without any warning..insurance gave me points for incident when there was no reason for air bags to deploy and I had to pay deductible…I should be reimbursed

Air bag light comes on from time to time wiggle some wires under the seat and light goes away,so I think it disables the airbags cause it says they need to be serviced, also engine knocks when start up the. Goes into a little knock after warm up, continues through driving all day some days worst then ever , weather it be fresh oil or 509 mike's down the rd , to 2000 miles down the rd, I think it's a manufacturer error

Saturday, October 23rd at around 11:00 am the airbag system check light came on. Brought it to my local mechanic who reviewed the code for the warning and it stated Code B0028-13 Ride Side Seat Deployment Squib 1 Circuit Open. Asked him if it could have been hit with one of my kids feet and he stated absolutely no based on where the connections where located under the seat.

2017 Dodge Ram 1500 with less than 30,000 miles is showing an air bag system warning. Have checked all the components under the seat as well as the fuses. Nothing seems to be faulty or out of place.
