After I put my car in park my daughter and I were still in the vehicle for a few minutes getting our things with the engine still running. I got out to get something from the back seat, my daughter got out the passenger door and made it to the driver side as I was closing the back passenger door. I was about to get back on the car to get the rest of my things and turn the ignition off but before I could my car was rolling backwards out of the driveway into the street.

I was hit in and intersection while making a left turn. The other vehicle was traveling straight and hit my back quarter panel. I was spun around twice and smashed into another car as well as a pole. NONE of my airbags went off. So glad my Kid's where not in the car!
First problem is the trunk door. About a week ago I was getting something out of my trunk and accidently hit the button and the door started to close so i tried to get away from it and somehow my arm got caught and there is absolutly NO sensor to stop the trunk from crushing my arm.

I was involved in an accident on 03/31/2022 I was only passenger. Going about 35 mph hit a parked vehicle on passenger side of vehicle. Side air bags employed. But front air bags did not. I did get a concussion and left with scar from embrasion above right eyebrow from hitting steering wheel. Why did not the front air bag go out?
WAS BACKING UP ON A DRIVEWAY AND WAS NEXT TO A CAR AND APPARENTLY WAS CLOSER THAN I THOUGHT AND HIT THE CAR BECAUSE MY SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM IS NOT OPERATING AND NO SENSORS OR WARNING SOUNDS WENT OFF. 'SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM' IS ON MY DASH.
