What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owned a 2002 toyota camry. While driving approximately 15 MPH, the front driver's side tire struck an object and burst. The vehicle drove into a ditch and crashed into a tree. The contact stated that there was approximately an inch of snow on the ground. The front air bags deployed. The front passenger seat belt unlatched and fractured into pieces. The rear driver's side seat belt unlatched. The front driver's seat belt did not unlatch and was cut off to free the driver. A police report was filed.
I had a wreck in jan., 7th, 2005. I was traveling below the speed limit and the lady in front of me was dead stopped and I cold not stop my car. I hit her stopped car, doing 45 MPH and my airbags did not deploy! Now the airbag on the passenger side, is not right. It has moved and separated as if it is about to pop open, since the wreck and the people that did the service on my car to fix the front end (via my insurance co. - usaa) have had it looked at and they will not do anything about it.
