The police crash report indicates that the airbags did not deploy. Prior to the accident there were no warnings or indications that the airbags were inoperable. Driver was taken to the hospital from the accident location because of severe chest and shoulder pain.

There is a tendency to lean against the rear cover when loading/unloading cargo thus coming into contact with the tailpipes. Vehicle was stationary, parked and recently tuned off.
While vehicle powered on, rear passenger side seat heater caught fire / electrical fire with significant, ongoing smoldering. Burned seating and passenger. Required passengers to immediately evacuate the vehicle. Seat heater fire impacted cabin climate control, defrost sensors, windshield wiper sensors and more. Fire continued while parked and running. Toxic electrical fire scent permeates vehicle. Photos and video available.
