Description of the problem | On october 2nd 2019 i was traveling on the express way at highway speeds when i was involved in an accident. Damages to my car were so bad that the claims department deemed it as a total loss. The front of my car was completely smashed in. Neither of my airbags deployed. I always thought that subarus were supposed to be safe so this is very disappointing. I'm not sure where to go from here about this but it is scary that this happened.*dt*jb |
