My wife was in an accident with our new 2003 GMC Envoy slt, purchased in November of 2003. To avoid rear ending the car in front of her, she swerved the Envoy off of the road, down a hill and and hit a tree in the right front or passenger side of the vehicle. She hit the tree with such force that the damage to the front of the vehicle resulted in a total loss. My concern is the air bags never never deployed in this accident. I would like to know why? and I would like to know more information as to the operation of the air bag system in a GMC Envoy.
