2013 Chevrolet Cruze

I WAS STOPPED IN HIGHWAY TRAFFIC AND REAR-ENDED (I'VE ATTACHED THE CRASH REPORT FROM THE IN STATE POLICE). MY SEAT BELT DID NOT ENGAGE AND MY AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY CAUSING ME TO HIT MY HEAD ON THE STEERING WHEEL RESULTING IN ABRASIONS AND TWO BLACK EYES. THIS SEEMS TO BE EITHER A SERIOUS DESIGN PROBLEM OR A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. REGARDLESS, THE SENSORS THAT CAUSE THE SEAT BELT TO LOCK SHOULD NOT BE IN THE FRONT OF THE CAR AS THEY THEN PROVIDE NO PROTECTION FROM A REAR END COLLISION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (LOWEST PRICE TRANSPORTATION NETWORK IN PLANTATION, FL) WHERE THE TECHNICIAN REFERRED THE VEHICLE TO AN UNKNOWN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO REPAIR THE AIR BAG ISSUE; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. ADDITIONALLY, THE CYLINDER HEAD GASKET BLEW UP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A CHEVROLET DEALER IN BELLEGLADE, FLORIDA WHERE THE ENGINE WAS REPAIRED AFTER TWO MONTHS. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE BANK. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 100,000.
