What owners wrote
I was involved in a hit and run on March 2,2026 and the airbags did not deploy at all. My car was taken to ray lathem dealership when there was a recall pertaining to the airbags back in 2019. I was told everything was corrected. Now fast forward to March 2,2026 no airbags deployed at all from the impact of crash. That was the first thing the police and ambulance asked and saw. Myself and My fiancee both were taken to the hospital.
Vehicle was recalled for notification # p60. Dealer has not yet called us for the fix. I have called several times and they say the parts are not in. We received the first recall feb. 2, 2015 and the second today march 16, 2015. No response from dealer..
