[Resolved]  Toyota — Toyota (Innova van) Complaints - Deadly impact - Toyota Innova airbags still not deployed. WHY?

I just wanted to complain about my airbags in my Toyota Innova not deploying when my husband and I along with our 2 daughters and my mother got into an accident on December 30th 2008. What had happened was that my husband was on the driver seat and the Innova banged into a stationary truck from behind. To my very big surprise, the airbags did not deploy nor did the seatbelt locked. I dont know what action I can take but I am very concerned about this and anyone else who may own one.

The front and passenger side of the van was totaled and we were going at speeds of 70-75 KPH. We have lost the van and now left with suffering head, neck, and severe back pains. We are still waiting for the insurance company/car body shop to review the damages and make their decision and while they are investigating, I am going to have them check the airbag sensors in the front of the van. At the end of almost a month, my husband and I are still going in and out of hospitals due to the mentioned injuries and the trauma. We were shocked and appalled that these airbags did not deploy at this very severe impact. CAR IS TOTAL LOSS. The engine is smashed in, no air bag deployment. Emotional and physical trauma. I thank God but Toyota failed me...If someone can contact me regarding my options here that would be most appreciated.
