Description of the problem | I was rear ended while stopped, by a vehicle reported to be doing 40 mph. My vehicle sustained rear bumper damage from the car hitting mine and front bumper / engine compartment damage from the car i subsequently hit. Total damage in excess of $11,000. The air bag did not deploy, but i didn't know if the impact was severe enough to activate it. However, when reviewing the repair invoice, i noticed the air bag sensor was replaced. Apparently it should have activated the system but didn't. |
