What owners wrote
We were hit on the drivers and passengers sides of the vehicle by another vehicle that was travelling at an estimated 90-100 MPH, and the airbags did not deploy. My vehicle was travelling at about 50 MPH on an interstate when it was struck on the driver's side first. The force of that impact pushed my vehicle into a large box truck on the passenger's side. The police stated that the airbags should have deployed with the extreme force of the impact.
While driving straight on a highway, I heard a loud noise from the top of my car. The sunroof glass had spontaneously shattered. When I looked through my rear view mirror I could see some pieces flying. Thankfully, the car behind me was far away enough that they were not hit by these glass pieces and also had my interior slider closed. A serious accident could have occurred if both my slider wasn't closed and/or the car behind me was close to me.
