Takara recall. On 7/11/18 I was in a head on car accident and front air bags s did not deploy, truck was driving 35MPH when another truck pulled out into my lane and I hit him very hard , police noticed and asked several times if airs bags deployed and they did not
1-takata recall 2- rear differential- I had to completely replace the rear differential at 153,000 miles. I have seen a lot of the same problem reported on different online forums. There should be a recall on this. It cost me over $3,000. It had many broken parts inside of it. It could have locked up the rear wheels and caused a very unsafe condition. Thank you
