My boyfriend was in an accident with my 2020 Cherokee and hit a semi truck at the front right corner of the Jeep while on a 2 lane highway. None of the airbags deployed. Thankfully no one was injured inside the vehicle. There was a 29 year old driving and a 2 year old in the back seat on the right side.
