2018 Toyota C-HR Air Bags & Restraints Problems

I was driving on the highway when I hydroplaned due to bad weather and hit the cement wall head on. The airbags did not deploy. There were no lights prior to failure. My insurance said that it was surprising that the airbags did not deploy given the extensive frame damage to my vehicle. My safety was put at risk due to potentially enduring life threatening injuries if any other cars hit me. My vehicle was totaled and taken possession of by insurance.

No july 20 I had a car accident, I was driving on my road, and suddenly another car crashed into my car, moving 2 lanes in the opposite direction, the impact was so strong that the vehicle that hit me was completely destroyed. All the bags in the car that hit me exploted, but none of the bags in my car exploted.

HIT FROM REAR; OTHER DRIVER HIT AT 40 MPH, AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY.
