What owners wrote
A ford ranger pulled out in front of us and we collided at approx. 45 to 50 miles per hour. Impact to our van was head on. Impact to the ranger was on its mid section passenger side. My wife 's seat was almost fully forward and she was wearing her seat belt but because the airbags did not deploy, she hit her head on the windsheild. Breaking the glass and giving her a concussion.
Tl*the contact owns a 2000 chevrolet venture. While driving 55 MPH, the contact noticed that the air bag indicator illuminated on the instrument panel. The failure indicated that both air bags were deactivated. The vehicle was driven to the dealer, but they could not inspect the vehicle because the air bag indicator was not illuminated at the time. The failure continued intermittently; however, the air bag indicator remained illuminated. The vehicle was returned to the dealer and they performed a diagnostic test.
