I was rear ended on the interstate and pushed into a truck in front of me, but my airbags did not deploy. I struck my head on the steering wheel. There is significant damage to the front end of the car and the rear end is also damaged. The air bags in the car that hit me deployed; and the truck I hit had air bags deployed. Just wondering if there are other reports of problems with BMW air bags not deploying ?
