I HAD JUST BOUGHT A 2010 TOYOTA CAMRY IN MARCH 2010. MY WIFE WAS DRIVING IT AT APPROXIMATELY 65MPH AND A WRECKLESS MOTORCYCLE DRIVER HIT THE CAR AT APPX 100 MPH, THE MOTORCYCLE DAMAGED THE CAR WAS A TOTAL LOSS DUE TO THE SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE ROOF, THE SIDE REAR SIDE PANELS THE TRUNK THE BUMPER REAR WINDSHIELD AND INTERIOR, THE DRIVER LANDED IN THE ROOF BUT ALMOST WENT INSIDE THE CAR THROUGH THE REAR WINDSHIELD WHICH WAS BROKEN TWO AIR BAGS ARE LOCATED ON EACH SIDE OF THE REAR WINDSHIELD, THEY CAME OUT OF PLACE BUT DID NOT DEPLOY, MY PASSENGERS WERE INJURED, MY 4 YR OLD'S CAR SIT WAS IN THE CAR BUT SHE WAS NOT IN THE CAR AT THE TIME, THE MOTORCYCLE AND THE DRIVER'S BODY ACTUALLY WOULD HAVE HIT HER IF SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN INSIDE THE CAR AND IF HE WOULD HAVE GONE INSIDE THE CAR THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD, (REAR) HE WOULD HAVE KILLED MY PASSENGERS. I HAVE SOME PICTURES AND I WOULD LIKE YOU TO SEE THEM, IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE AIR BAGS SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED. *TR

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE WAS IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT THIS PAST WEEK. MY SON WAS DRIVING AND THE REAR ABRUPTLY WENT TO THE RIGHT AND HE LOST CONTROL AND SKIDDED ACROSS A ROAD INTO A SOFT SHOULDER/EMBANKMENT CAUSING SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE, THE CAR THEN FLIPPED/ROLLED OVER LANDING ON IT'S ROOF. THERE ENDED UP BEING SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE TO MOST OF THE VEHICLE. UPON INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE BY US ON THE FOLLOWING DAY WE DID NOTICE THAT THE RIGHT REAR TIRE HAD BLOWN OUT, I ASSUME THIS CAUSED THE ABRUPT VEERING TO THE RIGHT DESCRIBED ABOVE. MY SON HAD HIS SEAT BELT ON AND LUCKILY HAD ONLY MINOR INJURIES. MY CONCERN/QUESTION IS WHY THE AIR BAGS DID NOT GO OFF. THIS INCLUDES THE ONES BUILT INTO THE FRONT PILLARS AND THOSE ON THE SIDE DESIGNED TO PROTECT THE OCCUPANTS HEAD AND ARM, ETC. BTW: THIS VEHICLE WAS RECALLED FOR THE DEFECTIVE GAS PEDAL/FLOOR MATS AND WAS SCHEDULED TO HAVE THE RECALL/REPAIR COMPLETED ON 7/29/10. PHOTO'S WERE TAKEN BY HIM OF THE DAMAGE. *TR
