Although no one was injured thankfully. I wondered why the airbags didn't go off. Should I be worried" has anyone made this same complaint" thank you.

I have owned a GMC all my adult life. This Envoy has been nothing but problems....now the gauges seem to be all screwed up and after reading post from online..I will need to put more time and more money into this SUV. Nothing like driving late at night worried about what's happening now. I go from sitting at a red light and my car losing pressure and turning off, to now every time I get into it and leave my house I hear the door bell and all my panels symbols flash and shows no gas to no battery life.. I am not pleased and will never purchase a GM again..so sad.
While traveling down I-95 at appx. 60mph the car in front of me stopped short. I slammed into the back of it. My airbags did not deploy, nor did onstar call to check on me (so much for believing in those ads!) the entire front end needs to be replaced. Fluids were spilling from the vehicle. 2 witnesses are capitol hill police officers who were shocked that the airbags did not deploy. The seatbelt did restrain me causing irritation at that site. My back, neck and head were aching. I was checked out by the er.

Avoiding to hit an upcoming vehicle in a curve, I lost control of my GMC Envoy SUV 2004 and hit a concrete driveway and stopped with an electrical utility post front side. The airbags did not deploy causing myself to hit the steering wheel and injured my neck, my head, lower back, knees and left arm. The insurance company told me that if the air bags would deployed they would declared my vehicle total loss due to the extensive damage. I told them I don't want my vehicle repaired if the air bags are not changed. I intend to go against GMC legally.
2004 GMC Envoy developed the following problems: Vehicle stalled, turn signals stopped working, blower fan stopped working, and the SRS light remains lit. The turn siganls stopped working due to a short in the flasher. The powertrain control module was replaced due to the ses light iluminating. The blower motor fan failed 4 times due to a short in the wires and control head. The vehicle overheated, but the problem could not be diagnosed. The lcd displays, knobs become extremly hot after hours of driving.
