Unfortunately, there are many reasons why your airbags may have failed to deploy during a car accident. As consumers, we all hope that car manufacturers are careful and thorough in their testing and quality control measures, but that is not always the case. Many airbag deployment failures can be traced back to a manufacturing error. Common causes include:
- Airbag control module defects
- Defective crash sensors
- Defective electrical components
- Severed wiring
