I was driving for work and got into a pretty bad accident and the airbags did not deploy. I am not sure if it was because the airbag recall I got fixed back in 2020 or it was because the damages weren’t enough to deploy the airbags.

I was hit yesterday and my airbags didn't deploy. WHY???

Three car accident. Driver 3 was at stop light (red) driver 2 (myself) was directly behind him (stopped). Driver 1 and at high speed hit me from behind. Airbags didn’t deploy. Causing injury to me and my passenger.

I was driving southbound on a main road when a car pulled out right Infront of me. This caused me to hit the left side of his car between the front and back door (Nissan Sedan) with the front right of my car. I hit his car at roughly 45mph. My car (Toyota Corolla) did not deploy any airbags. His car almost all the airbags went off. My car was totaled. The front right wheel was completely ripped apart, the fluids from around the engine all spilled out, and the front right door does not open. There is a police report filed and the accident is filed with my insurance (Progressive). The car was inspected by insurance just to determine if it is totaled and the value it's worth. There were never any warnings from my car and the car was regularly maintained. I believe my safety was at risk by the airbags not going off. I hit my face on the steering wheel causing injury to my jaw.

I got into a car accident on August 30, 2022. The airbags didn't go off. All of the airbags didn't go off when the accident happened. I have already filed a complaint against Toyota. They are looking into it.
