2015 Chevrolet Cruze

MY HUSBAND WAS TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 50 M.P.H. HE WAS LOOKING IN THE REARVIEW MIRROR. WHEN HE LOOKED AHEAD, THE SUV IN FRONT OF HIM WAS STOPPED FOR THE VEHICLE AHEAD TO TURN. BY THE TIME HE SAW THE SUV WAS STOPPED, THERE WAS ABOUT 10-15 FEET BETWEEN OUR CAR AND THE SUV. HE BRAKED AND TRIED TO SWERVE TO THE SIDE TO MISS THE SUV BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. HE SLAMMED INTO THE REAR OF THE SUV. THE SUV SUFFERED MINOR DAMAGE. OUR VEHICLE SUFFERED SIGNIFICANT FRONT END DAMAGE AND WAS LATER TOTALED. NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED IN OUR CAR.

I WAS REAR ENDED BY A DRIVER TRAVELING OVER 45MPH WHILE I WAS AT A FULL STOP. THIS IMPACT SLAMMED MY VEHICLE INTO THE TRUCK INFRONT OF MINE, AND SHOULD HAVE CAUSED THE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY. DESPITE THE ONBOARD COMPUTER ALERTING ME THAT THEY HAD, NO AIRBAGS IN THE CAR DEPLOYED. THERE WAS HOWEVER A DISTINCT ODOR AND WHITE POWDER PRESENT, LEADING ME TO BELIEVE THEY MAY HAVE ATTEMPTED TO.

AFTER I HAD STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, I BEGAN TO START A LEFT TURN, WHEN I WAS IMPACTED BY A DISTRACTED DRIVER ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. THE OTHER CAR HIT ME DIRECTLY ON THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT PANEL, CRUSHING BOTH DOORS, BENDING THE FRONT AXLE, AND TOTALING MY CAR. AS A RESULT OF THE IMPACT, MY HEAD HIT THE WINDOW, AND CAUSED IT TO SHATTER, GIVING ME A CONCUSSION.

I WAS DRIVING AND WAS STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN I PROCEEDED TO EXCEL FORWARD. THE CAR WAS ONLY GOING BETWEEN 10-15 MILES PER HOUR WHEN WITHOUT HITTING OR CURBING ANYTHING MY TIRE BLEW. RIGHT AFTER THE TIRE BLEW ALL (6) SIX OF MY AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. WHEN THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED THE CAR QUICKLY FILLED WITH SMOKE LIKE AIR. THE AIRBAGS CAUSED ME TO NOT BE ABLE TO SEE AND I STEERED THE CAR OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AT SUCH TIME, ONSTAR CAME ACROSS THE SPEAKERS AND ASKED IF WE WERE IN AN ACCIDENT AND IF WE NEEDED THE POLICE &/OR AN AMBULANCE. WE YELLED TO THE ONSTAR PERSON THAT WE THOUGHT THE CAR WAS ON FIRE BECAUSE OF THE SMOKE LIKE SUBSTANCE AND THAT WE NEEDED THE POLICE THAT WE WERE ON ONLY VEHICLE THAT HAD BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. I STILL HAVE NO CLUE WHAT TRANSPIRED IN THE EVENT OF THE TIRE BLOWING ESPECIALLY SINCE I DIDN'T HIT ANYTHING OR CURB ANYTHING. AND I STILL DON'T KNOW WHY THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED WHEN THEY SHOULDN'T HAVE. I AM EDUCATED ON THE REQUIREMENTS OF DEPLOYED AIRBAGS AND NEVER AT SUCH TIME DID I EVER MEET THESE REQUIREMENTS ESPECIALLY FOR ALL (6) SIX OF THE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY. I NEVER HIT ANYTHING AT A SPEED OF 14 MPH, NOR WAS I TEE BONED FROM BOTH SIDES, NOR DID OUR CAR ROLE OVER. WHICH IS THE MAIN REASONS FOR ALL (6) SIX OF THE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY. ON ANOTHER NOTE THE AIRBAGS ON THE DRIVERS SIDE, MY SIDE, DEPLOYED WITH SUCH FORCE THAT THE AIRBAGS BROKE MY GLASSES, MY CELL PHONE SCREEN, AND BROKE THE IGNITION KEY OFF IN THE IGNITION. THE AIRBAG THAT PROTECTS THE DRIVERS KNEES LEFT A BRUISE THE SIZE OF A GRAPEFRUIT ON MY LEG. I NEVER SEEMED MEDICAL ATTENTION. AS FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS, THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANY FORCE BEHIND THEM. THE AIRBAGS NEVER EVEN TOUCHED MY WIFE AT ALL AND SHE DIDN'T HAVE ANY INJURIES AT ALL. THE TIRE IN WHICH WE ARE DISCUSSING IS THE FRONT PASSENGER TIRE.

I DROVE OVER A BUMP AND THE SIDE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED RIPPING THE ROOF COVERING OFF AROUND THE INSIDE TOP OF THE CAR. I REPORTED THIS TO THE DEALER AND THEY AT REFUSING TO COVER THE REPAIR EVEN THOUGH THERE IS NO VISIBLE DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE ASIDE FROM SOME LIGHT SCRATCHES ALONG THE FRONT WHERE I HAD TURNED TOO CLOSE TO THE CURB IN THE PAST AND IT HAD SCRAPED THE FRONT. MY VEHICLE IS STILL AT THE DEALER AND I AM VERY FRUSTRATED THEY ARE ATTEMPTING NOT TO COVER THIS REPAIR.

MAJOR FRONT AND SIDE IMPACT--NO AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. ENTERED INTERSECTION PROPERLY AND ANOTHER DRIVER RAN THROUGH RED LIGHT AND HIT THE CAR IN RIGHT FRONT, CRACKING THE WINDSHIELD, AND SPINNING THE CAR AROUND AND HITTING THE RIGHT REAR SIDE, BREAKING THE RIGHT REAR WHEEL OFF AND RESTING ON IT SIDEWAYS. RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER RECEIVED MILD CONCUSSION FROM HITTING HEAD ON RIGHT DOOR GLASS. DRIVER AND PASSENGER HAVE BRUISES. BOTH HAD SEAT AND SHOULDER BELTS ON.

I WAS REAR ENDED ON THE FREEWAY AT A VERY HIGH RATE OF SPEED. I WAS TRAVELING AT 65-70 MPH... THE CAR THAT HIT ME WAS APPROXIMATELY TRAVELING 85-90.. THE IMPACT SENT ME ACROSS THE 2 AND 1 LANE IN TRAFFIC.. NO AIR BAGS DEPLOYED ANYWHERE IN THE VEHICLE. HOWEVER SMOKE FROM THE BAG FILLED THE PASSENGER SPACE AND THE DASH INDICATOR LIGHTS , DISPLAY A DEPLOYMENT HAD TAKEN PLACE. AGAIN NO BAGS DEPLOYED.

DRIVING FROM SKI AREA IN LINE OF CARS AT 15MPH WHEN CARS AHEAD STARTED TO STOP. HAD "SNOWFLAKE" BUTTON PUSHED. BRAKES APPEARED NOT TO ENGAGE, PROGRESSIVELY PUSHED ON BRAKE HARDER BUT NO EFFECT, FORTUNATELY BY THE TIME OF IMPACT CAR HAD SLOWED TO 5MPH AND AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. DAMAGE TO FRONT GRILLE. TURNING OFF "SNOWFLAKE" (ABS) RETURNED BRAKING TO NORMAL. *TR
