Narrative

To whom it may concern, I spun out on the highway in slippery conditions and hit the guard rail, probably at 50-60mph and none of the airbags deployed. I contacted KIA and even though the car is located at their dealership they have not even bothered to move this along and get it inspected. The insurance company sent an estimator to check, and I am waiting to see if they would repair or total it, but Kia has not bothered so far to send a team. There were no symptoms before the accident that the car may malfunction at any point. At walked out of this not because the safety mechanisms did their job, it's by the grace of god.
