On 9/14/2010 my wife was involved in an auto accident in our 2010 pontiac g6 gt in which she turned from a private drive into the path of another vehicle. The other vehicle was traveling approximately 35-40 MPH, impacting our car in the drivers side front fender, wheel assembly, and drivers door. Both airbags were deployed in the other car however none of the airbags in our g6 deployed.
On april 16th 2016 I was in a car accident. Me and a friend were driving back to his house the road at night, when a deer crossed the road, I attempted to maneuver to dodge the deer and ended up going off the road and losing control of my vehicle. My car hit a fence line, as well a multiple small trees. The car was totaled yet my airbags did not deploy.
