My husband fell asleep at approximately 3:00 am and hit a guardrail. The driverside airbag did not deploy and he hit the steering wheel, sustained a bruised heart and neck injury. Was taken to the hospital er, transferred to icu; he is out of the hospital now, being watched closely for any further problems. Have there been other accidents with this make and model pickup where the airbag did not inflate" or is it faulty equipment on just this vehicle"

Involved in a head-on collision. Vehicle (truck) was hit by an oncoming vehicle at an approximate 45 degree angle approximately 2 feet right of center of the truck on the front bumper.

Upon impact, the direction of travel of the truck was reversed - the truck bounced back approximately 3 feet - as evidenced by the skid marks and resting position of the truck.
