 I was involved in a crash in my 2001 toyota tundra. during the crash i ended up going through a power pole severing it. i struck the pole in the center of the front end. the damage was substantial totaling the vehicle. my concern is neither airbag deployed. is this a problem with toyota trucks? even highway patrol and the fire dept. said the air bags should have gone off. *jb
