While traveling East on hwy 70 (between morehead city & havelock nc.) my vehicle (1995 Dodge Caravan SE) I was struck by another vehicle on the right front side of my vehicle. The impact was such that the axles were knocked out. My passengers air bag deployed and my bag failed to deploy on impact. The bag compartment open after my chest struc the steering wheel. My impact with the wheen was lessened as I was wearing my seat belt (as was my passenger) there was a witness to my air bag failure. The highway patrol were told of the failure by myself as well as by the witness. I am currently ubder a doctors care for extencuve soft tissue damage to the area of my breast bone (internally). My dogdge was totalled out by the nationwide insurance adjuster.

The van was struck from the rear (approx. 35-40 mph) and was driven into another vehicle. The entire front end of the van was driven in against the motor, both front bucket seat (backs) were broken, the driver seat was facing slightly toward the driver door, the drivers knees were forced into the dash (with her seat belt on) and neither one of the air bags were deployed. Chrysler said this was normal when I contacted them about why the bags didn't deploy.

We received a recall on the air bags in August of 1999. Took the van to audubon Chrysler center in henderson, ky. To be checked out. We were turning into our driveway when a car topped the hill hit us. The police, the wrecker driver, and the body shop getting us an estimate, could not understand why the air bags did not activate. They had to haul our van on a flatbed truck could not tow it in. My husband has a bruise across his stomach and a knee bleeding and bruised. I have a cracked rib plus bruises and foot and knee bruises. Bobby missed two days work, and I haven't worked since the wreck on the 30 of November. Today is the 9 of December. My question is how many 95 vans are there out on the road with the sma air bags problem" would there be any surivors if their air bags don't go off" a very concerned customer.
