Driving at 55 mph a ford focus pulled straight out in front of me and came to a stop. i was approximately 1 car length away when they did this so i did not have time to stop and could not pull out around them because i would have been in oncoming traffic. i t-boned this vehicle doing 55 mph and they were stopped. my front end hit directly on their front drivers side. their front left fender and tire were bent in and both of their front air bags deployed. my whole front end was crushed in and the center of my hood looked like i hit a tree. none of my air bags deployed. if i had not been wearing my seat belt i would have been more seriously injured than i was. where are the sensors for air bag deployment? shouldn't mine have deployed? | |||

I had the bumper replaced by honda of hollywood through the other partys insurance, however it took almost 2months to have done because they were giving me the run around. i had the bumper replaced 9/11/00 and richard in the hollywood honda autobody shop tells me that there should be an opening where the bumper and body of the car meet. i told him when i purchased the car it was like that the two met closely and now he is trying to convince me that its was never like that and to look at all the other hondas they are not close together. at this point 2 months of being dumped on, the farmers insurance adjuster from the guilty party made a deal with richard from my initial precise estimate of $895.00 to honda's $413.00 and the bumper is worse off. i need a lawyer can someone help me out? *ak | |||

The support rod for the hood is approximately 1 ft. in length, and is located approximately one foot from the hood hinge. the support rod also contains a manufactured bend in the center that is meant to fold under pressure. it failed. slight pressure was applied to the hood while in the raised position between 1.5 and 3.5 inches . the hood bent on the rod. there was no extra reinforcement in the manufactured placement area provided for the rod. the damage is minimal.....only a 1/4 inch dimple in the hood, but the hood is so thin that the only manufacturer recommended repair is complete replacement of the hood. i feel that this is a definite design flaw; the entire weight of the hood pivots on the rod at only one foot in distance from the fulcrum(hinge). physically it is a certainty that damage is inevitable. | |||
