NHTSA complaint: 2010 KIA FORTE — AIR BAGS
KIA AIRBAG RECALLGOOD DAY, MY VEHICLE (2010 KIA, FORTE) WHICH WAS TOTALED IN REAR-ENDED CAR ACCIDENT (WHILE WAITING AT STOP-LIGHT ON A CITY STREET) FROM A DISTRACTED DRIVER THAT TOOK PLACE ON 11/1/2011. MY NECK WAS SEVERELY INJURED, WHICH REQUIRED SURGERY IN MARCH, 2012. IN FACT, I OBTAINED SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY (SSDI) IN 2013 BASED ON THAT NECK INJURY. BY THE WAY, AFTER RECEIVING RETRO SSDI, I PURCHASED A 2012 KIA FORTE AND PRESENTLY WAITING FOR MY RECALL-NOTIFICATION FOR REPAIR/FIX. I'M WRITING IN REGARDS TO THE RECENT KIA AIRBAG RECALL. THE AIRBAG IN MY 2010 KIA FORTE DID NOT DEPOLY IN THE 2011 CAR ACCIDENT. PLEASE VIEW SUBMITTED PHOTOS IMAGES. THE PAST PHOTOS SUBMITTED SHOWED THE DRIVER'S WHEEL AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY, AS I HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AFTER BEING REAR-ENDED. IN MY OPINION, KIA CORPORATION SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR AIRBAG FAILURE IN MY PAST CAR ACCIDENT CASE. AS PREVIOUSLY STATED, I RECEIVE SSDI DUE TO MY INJURY FROM THAT CAR ACCIDENT. PLEASE ADVISE.
