My name is [xxx] and I was a car accident on thursday, january 21, 2021 a vehicle hit me. I was in motion heading straight and the other car failed the right away and hit me on the drivers side. My airbags did not deploy. I'm wondering if there was recall or if anyone else has had this issue?
Since november 2018 of this year the seat belt on the driver's side does not feel right it seems loose and the light illuminates red and comes on randomly and chimes. The seat belts looks and feels cheaply made. It has only gotten worse since the airbag module was replaced by dealership. Dealership says the looseness of the belt is normal.they claim when they drive it the red symbol never comes on or chimes. It is never picked up as a code on the VW car net or on their machine. What am I supposed to do?
