My father was disoriented and didn't know where he was. He just kept driving, hoping to figure it out. His car went off the road down into a very deep ravine. The car sustained over $17000 in damage. The insurance company totaled the car. He has 9 broken ribs, and has been in the icu for 6 days now. The airbags did not deploy. Something is not right here. He bought the car at a Lexus dealership, performance Lexus of Lincoln. They worked on his car in May...total was over $2000.

Complaint received via E-mail. My Lexus ES300 had a frontal crash on November 16, 2004 and severely damaged the front part of the car. Front metal bumper broke, and was pushed in O the radiator. Upon impact, none of the airbags deployed. Defective equipments, airbag equipment malfunctioned became clear here. Please review some of the photos in the following website to see the failure of the safety airbag system of Lexus car.www.lexusairbagsafety.com I informed the Lexus customer support of this equipment failure and expressed the safety concern. Lexus was conducting an inspection on this car, but told that it may take 6 weeks. They were trying to slow down the process. It is important for NHTSA to involve in this issue and conduct an inspection to save the lives of drivers and passengers.
