What owners wrote
My 2004 acura tsx and I were involved in a front collision (the front of my car hit the rear end of a car in front of me. The front left side of my tsx struck the right rear side of a late model chevy impala. The impact set off my passenger side airbag, but not my driver side airbag. I was driving and struck my head on the steering wheel of my tsx. The seat belt did not catch me and airbag did not deploy. I sustained a concussion from the incident and feel that my airbag should deploy.
