What owners wrote
My wife was in an accident where the at-fault driver ran a red light and t-boned her drivers side front door and pillar area while crossing an intersection. Our car was hit hard enough to where the floor board and fire wall are wrinkled. Not one air bag deployed. The toyota truck that struck my wifes car had it's air bags deployed. The auto body shop is telling me, because of the hard impact the vehicle is a total loss.
The dashboard is cracking right into the passenger side airbag. It this deployed it would send shards of plastic flying into the cabin of the vehicle. I have small children that ride in this vehicle daily.
