My Mazda6 driver front air bag inflator is hazardous, potentially deadly, recalled nearly 5 months ago and still no replacement part is available. This is my only form of transportation and I am risking my own life as well as passengers every time I drive the car. I live in a high humidity, high risk state (ga) for these faulty inflators and need replacement and safety reassurance asap!

I was driving to work at 733am and my brakes locked front wheel slid card did not stop and hit front vehicle and air bags did not deploy and cause me an accident which car was completely a loss and im still scare that the airbags did not work. Im still scare I did not cause myself a worse accident but im emotionally still shaken by the air bags.

Our 2006 Mazda 6 GT was totaled in a wreck in which it flipped 4 or more times on the highway and then into the median. The speed at the time accident occurred was 70 mph. Not one of the 6 equipped air bags was deployed. I contacted Mazda customer service and was told that apparently none of the sensors were tripped and this is not uncommon. I find it hard to believe that not one of 6 would trip in an accident that violent. My insurance also didn't seem to think it was an issue. This is problem because most of us believe that our air bags will protect us in most any wreck, especially one in which you are flipping on pavement. Thank god there were no major injuries, no thanks to air bags.
