NO CRASH/INCIDENT. RECEIVED INCREASE IN INSURANCE PREMIUM FOR 2004 BUICK CENTURY. CALLED INSURANCE COMPANY WHICH STATED THE INCREASE WAS A RESULT OF COMPANY HAVING INCREASED PERSONAL INJURY CLAIMS FOR FAILURE OF AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY DURING ACCIDENTS. ALTHOUGH I AM NOT REPORTING ANY ACCIDENT, I INDICATE TODAY'S DATE OF T HIS REPORT AS 12/15/2008 BELOW. NUMBER OF DEATHS & PERSONS INJURED ARE UNKNOWN; HOWEVER, I PLACED THE NUMBER 1 IN EACH CATEGORY TO "PROCEED" TO THE NEXT WINDOW. FURTHER, I DO NOT KNOW ANY DETAILS OF THOSE ACCIDENTS AS REPORTED BY MY INSURANCE COMPANY; THEREFORE, THE "NO" CATEGORIES ARE LEFT IN THE DEFAULT INDICATION. *TR

MY PARENT'S VEHICLE, A 2004 BUICK CENTURY, COLLIDED WITH A GUARD RAIL ON AN ENTRANCE RAMP TO I-81 IN CHRISTIANSBURG, VA. THEY WERE WEARING SEAT BELTS/SHOULDER HARNESS. MAIN IMPACT WAS FRONT LEFT BUMPER, WHICH WAS PUSHED IN ~ 3 FEET IN A NARROW INDENTATION; HOOD WAS CRUMPLED. THERE WAS DAMAGE TO LEFT SIDE OF VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. BOTH PASSENGERS SUSTAINED INJURIES AND WERE TAKEN TO LOCAL HOSPITAL'S EMERGENCY ROOM. I SUSPECT THEIR INJURIES WOULD HAVE BEEN LESS SEVER HAD THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. DAMAGE TO VEHICLE IS VERY EXTENSIVE. *NM UPDATED 12/05/06. *JB
