NHTSA complaint: 2003 SUBARU LEGACY — AIR BAGS
AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY IN MVA THAT PROBABLY TOTALED MY 2003 SUBARU LEGACY WAGON(NO OFFICIAL WORD FROM ADJUSTER YET). HIT BY A DRUNK DRIVER(BLOOD ALCOHOL LEVEL.3). HIT BY AN '83 CHEVY CITATION WITH NO FRONT BUMPER. HE WAS GOING 40-45 MPH, I WAS BRAKING MADLY FROM 42 MPH. SUBARU SAYS SENSORS ARE MOUNTED ON BUMPER, BUT EVEN SO, WHAT ABOUT SUVS AND TRUCKS. I WAS VERY LUCKY AND WALKED AWAY WITH MINIMAL INJURIES, BUT THIS FAILURE COULD HAVE KILLED SOMEONE ELSE. PLEASE LOOK INTO IT ASAP. *JB+
