    Well, take care of yourself. Hopefully you're fully recovered soon.

    Curious to know what car you chose.

    I don't know if I can purchase a mirage after a big accident like that because of PTSD. Although one would think that because you 'crash tested' the car, you would be comfy in it.

    Either way, the only way to know if you have a good case is to find out under what circumstances the airbags are supposed to deploy. IF they were supposed to deploy with the impact you had, then $$$. If not, then you would have just wasted your time.

    I would call/contact IIHS about your situation. They, if anyone, should have some direction to point you at.

    While I am very surprised that the airbags did not deploy the car still saved my life!

    Thank you Mitsubishi! Once the insurance co & bank get their respective acts done, I'll likely buy another!

    Yeah, those airbags should have deployed. Hopefully you can get some answers about it. Glad you're alright!

    I'm glad you made it out alive. But at looking at your mirage , I think your mirage did very well because the inside cabin is all safe and you came out alive . I think in all accidents everyone has some bruises and cuts. I think Mitsubishi did well except for the airbags. Maybe you wouldn't have any bruises if the air bags would of worked. Another mirage is the way to go.
