I'm just wondering if there were any injuries and, if they were, why they weren't mentioned in the original post? If there weren't any injuries, then I'd imagine your vehicle operated in the manner in which it should have because you would have survived a 65 MPH accident unharmed.

File a Request for Review with the DOT. Tell them your story and ask for their opinion. Send all details. Mail certified + RRR.

The make and model of the vehicle is a 2006 Pontiac GTO. the engineer took one measurment of the radiator bracket according to the GM body shop manager and stated that in his oppinion that they should not have deployed. I have submitted pictures and am waiting for them to be posted. In repsonse the entire metal bumper under the skirt has been dented in approximately 5 inches. so no it did not miss the bumper....wait till you see the pictures. thanks

You didn't explain why the GM engineer deemed the airbags to be properly functioning. If you braked hard and the nose of the car dove downward then, yes, you would have missed the bumper and not triggered the airbag sensors. Not uncommon on all autos with airbags. Its a shortcoming in the airbag concept. Thats why seatbelts are still required.

Since you fail to mention anything about make, model, year of vehicle for some odd reason....Was this a pickup truck with a plow frame attachment?
