Description of the problem | On august 31, 2010,occurred an car accident in mayaguez, puerto rico. The vehicle was declared total loss by the insurance company. None of the air bags deployed. The toyota camry 2009 impacts straight to a concrete fence approximate 65-44 mph five seconds before the impact. In several occasion, i tried to reach toyota of pr to require that inspect my vehicle because none of the air bags deployed. Finally, on oct 2010 they inspected the vehicle and the insurance company pick up the vehicle but i retain the computer of the vehicle. On dec. 23 , toyota of pr wrote me a letter, in which inform that the air bags didn't deployed because the vehicle impacts to a post that is a flexible barrier approximate 13. 2 mph. I'm totally disagree with the toyota inform because the vehicle impact to a reinforced concrete fence and the insurance company declared total loss the vehicle. Toyota didn't correct the failure. |
