| I was in a three car accident in which i rear ended a stopped vehicle at 40mph. upon looking at kia's own website and the owner's manual for the 2011 kia sorento, i can see that the impact took place on the airbag sensor on the drivers side of the vehicle. the airbags failed to deploy & the front drivers side seat belt & front passenger side seat belt failed to 'lock'. this resulted in my 92 year old grandmother hitting the dash with her face, and i as the driver, hit my head on the steering wheel sustaining a concussion & whiplash. i am still suffering severe pain that i have to be medicated for with narcotics, and short term memory loss. my grandmother, luckily only sustained facial bruising. | |||
