NHTSA complaint: 2005 PONTIAC VIBE — AIR BAGS
I BOUGHT THIS CAR AUGUST 2005 AND IT ALWAYS HAD A START ISSUE. IT JUST WONT TURN OVER, BUT THIS PROBLEM CAN GO FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS BEFORE STARTING AGAIN. IT WILL START FINE SOME DAYS AND OTHERS IT WON'T. ALSO WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT REAR ENDED A VAN AND SMASHED UP THE CAR BUT THE AIR BAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY AT ALL. MY INSURANCE COMPANY STOPPED COUNTING THE DAMAGE AFTER IT HIT $10,000. IT WAS AT AN ANGLE VERSUS JUST STRAIGHT ON. CAR HAS LESS THAN 20,000 MILES ON IT. MAIN CONCERN WAS THE AIR BAG DIDN'T GO OFF WHEN THE COLLISION HAPPENED. LUCKILY EVERYONE WAS FINE. BUT WHAT IS BEING DONE ABOUT THIS TWO PROBLEMS? *TR
