ON 8/5/15 APPROXIMATELY 7:10 PM, I WAS DRIVING HIGHWAY 37 TOWARDS VALLEJO. IT WAS ONE LANE HIGHWAY, MARSH LAND ON THE RIGHT AND CONCRETE BLOCK ON THE LEFT. A MAROON VAN LOST CONTROL, BUMPED INTO MULTIPLE VEHICLES AND HIT US FROM THE BEHIND. OUR ODYSSEY MINIVAN HAD A COSTCO SIZE IGLOO ICE CHEST, COMPUTER TOTE, AND A PLASTIC CRATE IN THE TRUNK, BUT IT WAS CRUSHED TO THE BACK ROW SEATS. ALL THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED EXCEPT FOR THE FRONT AND PASSENGER. DUE TO THE FACT THAT FRONT AIRBAG DIDN'T DEPLOY, I HIT MY HEAD AND NECK FROM FRONT AND BACK MULTIPLE TIMES DURING THE CRUSH. I HAD PAIN IN MY NECK AND HEAD IMMEDIATELY, AND I WAS TRANSPORTED TO KAISER PARMANENTE HOSPITAL. I WAS DISCHARGED NEXT DAY, BUT DUE TO THE CONCUSSION I HAVE BEEN SUFFERED BY MASSIVE, PAINFUL HEADACHE AND NAUSEA. THE BACK OF OUR MINIVAN WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED WITH THIS UNSPEAKABLE FORCE. IF I WERE DRIVING 6 INCHES SLOWER, TWO CHILDREN WHO WERE SITTING IN THE VERY BACK ROW WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. THE FRONT AIR BAG SHOULD HAVE BEEN DEPLOYED TO SAVE ME FROM INJURY. PLEASE INVESTIGATE AND LET US KNOW WHY THE FRONT AIR BAG OF OUR HONDA ODYSSEY DID NOT WORK AS IT SHOULD BE. THANK YOU.

I WAS INVOLVED IN A VEHICLE ACCIDENT ON 6/23/2013. THE PERSON IN FRONT OF THE PERSON IN FRONT OF ME STOPPED AT A GREEN LIGHT. THE PERSON BEHIND THAT PERSON SLAMMED ON THEIR BRAKES AND I, IN TURN, HAD TO SLAM ON MY BRAKES. I WAS NOT ABLE TO STOP IN TIME AND CRASHED INTO THE BACK OF HER CAR. I WAS DOING BETWEEN 15-20 WHEN I HIT HER AND MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE AIRBAG LIGHTS LIT UP FOR THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER, BUT THE AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. BECAUSE OF THIS I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED AS THE POLICE OFFICER DETERMINED THE VAN WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE.
