description: I WAS ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK WHEN A KID FAILED TO YIELD TO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I HIT HIM ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WITH THE FRONT OF MY VEHICLE. I WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH. HIS AIRBAGS DEPLOYED, MY AIR BAGS DID NOT. I PROCEEDED TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH GM. AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS GOING BACK AND FORTH WITH THE COMPLAINT PROCESS WITH GM: THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. THEY ALSO STATED THAT WITH THE TYPE OF FRONT END IMPACT, THEY WOULD NOT EXPECT THE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY. I ARGUED THAT THE OTHER CARS DID WITH A SIDE IMPACT, MINE SHOULD HAVE WITH A FRONTAL IMPACT. I DO HAVE PICTURES THAT TELL THE STORY VERY CLEARLY. I ALSO WENT THROUGH 6 - 8 WEEKS OF PHYSICAL THERAPY TO TRY AND COPE WITH THE PAIN. I STILL HAVE PAIN 3.5 YEARS AFTER THE CRASH.
