NHTSA complaint: 2002 JEEP LIBERTY — AIR BAGS
WE HAD THE M35 RECALL DONE AT SOUTH POINT CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE IN TULSA OK ON APPROXIMATELY AUGUST 2, 2014. ON SEPTEMBER 18, 2014 MY DAUGHTER WAS INVOLVED IN A HIGHWAY INTERSECTION ACCIDENT WHERE HER CAR SUSTAINED FRONT END DAMAGE SO BAD IT WAS TOTALED. SHE WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10MPH AND THE OTHER CAR WAS GOING 65MPH. NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED WHEN THE COLLISION HAPPENED. THE OTHER CARS AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THAT CAR WAS TOTALED ALSO. I HAVE SEVERAL PICTURES OF MY DAUGHTERS CAR IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE COLLISION. THE POLICE, FIRE DEPARTMENT AND OKLAHOMA HIGHWAY PATROL ALL WERE SURPRISED HER AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. SUBSEQUENTLY SHE HAS SUSTAINED A CONCUSSION AND IS HAVING TO HAVE SEVERAL MRIS AND CT SCANS DUE TO THE CAR ACCIDENT. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY HER AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AT IMPACT. I THOUGHT THIS RECALL WAS SUPPOSE TO TAKE CAR OF AIRBAGS FROM DEPLOYING INADVERTENTLY BUT DIDN'T THINK IT WOULD CAUSE THEM TO NOT FUNCTION AT ALL. ..UPDATED 07-08-15 *BF *TR *JS
