I am submitting this on behalf of my father. Was involved in an accident in which his driver side air bag didn't deploy. Not sure whom the manufacture of the air bag is. According to the police report my dad was at fault. See pictures he basically pulled out on a 4- lane road and was hit by a vehicle traveling the opposite direction. The impact of the crash was pretty much driver's side headlight to drivers side headlight. I can not download photo's because they are 5.3 mb..the accident location was jackson,

My sister owned vehicle above until I purchased it in 2004 from her. She nor I have never received any recall letters from GM on the 7 recalls that your records show that needed to be corrected or replaced. Would it be possible for you to check into this as to why we didn't receive notices from GM. I have not have any incidents, but would like to know why I did not receive any recall notices. Nor did my sister the previous owner. Thank you. [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

The front inside corner of the passenger air bag was elevated slightly. Within a few months of purchase the consumer visited the dealer and ask if the cover could be fastened down. The dealer didn't know how to fasten the cover down.
