Wife t-boned a old style Subaru at 30 mph and the air bags did not deploy at all this was a 2019 mitibishi outlander se

I AM A RIDESHARE DRIVER. ON FRIDAY, APRIL 23, 2021 PASSENGERS BEGAN TO COMPLAIN THAT THE RIGHT-SIDE SEAT BELT (ON THE 2ND ROW OF SEATS) WOULD NOT FASTEN. AFTER ARRANGING FOR PEOPLE TO MOVE AROUND TO THE OTHER SIDE (LEFT-HAND SEAT) FOR A WHILE, I FINALLY QUIT DRIVING TO DEAL WITH THE ISSUE MYSELF. AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO REPAIR THE BUCKLE, I GAVE UP AND STARTED CALLING AROUND FOR THE PART--BUT COULD NOT FIND IT. FINALLY I NOTICED A RECALL NOTICE ONLINE FOR THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE IN 2014-2019 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDERS. ON MONDAY (APRIL 26) I CALLED SCOTT ELDER MITSUBISHI IN CEDAR PARK, TEXAS TO SCHEDULE THE RECALL REPAIR, BUT WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. THEY ALSO DID NOT HAVE THE PART AND COULD NOT OBTAIN ONE FOR AT LEAST A WEEK. I THEN CALLED THE MANUFACTURER DIRECTLY TO LEARN WHY MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED FOR THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH IT IS A 2019 AND HAS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AS DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL NOTICE. THEY COULD NOT GIVE ME A SATISFACTORY ANSWER, NOR ANY ALTERNATIVE RECOURSE TO RESOLVE MY ISSUE. AS STATED ABOVE, I AM A RIDESHARE DRIVER. I CANNOT DO MY JOB WITH AN UNUSABLE SEAT BELT. SWITCHING PASSENGERS TO THE OTHER SEAT WON'T ALWAYS WORK BECAUSE I OFTEN PICK UP 3 OR MORE PASSENGERS. EACH DAY I AM WITHOUT THE USE OF THE VEHICLE FOR WORK IS COSTING ME $250-$300 PER DAY (NOT COUNTING BONUSES).

WHEN USING THE BRAKE AUTO HOLD I STEPPED ON THE GAS WHILE SCRATCHING MY SIDE AT THE SAME TIME TO CROSS THE ROAD. I ACCIDENTALLY UNBUCKLED MY SEAT BELT WHICH THEN CAUSED THE BRAKE AUTO HOLD TO DISENGAGE AND AUTOMATICALLY APPLY THE PARKING BRAKE. THIS CAUSED MY CAR TO STOP DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I COULD NOT DISENGAGE THE PARKING BRAKE UNTIL I REBUCKLED MY SEAT BELT.

THE EPB (EMERGENCY PARKING BREAK) WAS SOME HOW ACTIVATED, NOT SURE IF BY ACCIDENT OR WIRING ISSUE AND NOW WILL NOT DISENGAGE. I CANNOT DRIVE MY VEHICLE AND HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET IT INTO THE DEALER FOR 3 WEEKS.

ON DECEMBER 23, 2020 I WAS DRIVING APRX 30 MPH. I BREAK TO GO OVER A TRAIN TRACK BRINGING MY SPEED TO ROUGHLY 20MPH. I HEARD A NOISE THAT SOUNDED LIKE METAL BUT I FIGURED IT WAS FROM THE TRAIN TRACKS. THERE WAS A WIDE BEND A FEW FEET UP THE WAY. I GET MY SPEED TO 40MPH AND START GOING AROUND THE BEND. I SLOW DOWN AND TRY TURNING TO TURN THE WHEEL. I COULD TURN THE WHEEL BUT THE CAR WAS NOT MOVING IN THE DIRECTION I WAS TURNING. I PRESS THE BREAK BUT I BEGAN TO HYDROPLANE CAUSING ME AND MY 3 CHILDREN TO CRASH INTO A HUGE DITCH DRAIN. UPON FARTHER INSPECTION THE TOWER IDENTIFIED THE CAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT WAS MY WHEEL ALIGNMENT. MY WHEELS WERE NOT POINTING THE SAME DIRECTION MEANING SOMETHING WITH THE STEERING BROKE (POSSIBLY THE NOISE I HEARD.) I HAVE RESEARCHED SINCE THIS DAY AND FOUND THAT OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUES WITH THEIR OUTLANDERS STARTING IN 2008.

WHEN DRIVING IN THE RAIN THE CAR HYDROPLANED ON ME ON 5 SEPARATE OCCASIONS. IT HAPPENED TO ME WHEN AT A MILD TURN AT FREE WAY SPEEDS AND SOMETIMES WHEN STRONG WINDS HIT THE VEHICLE. LOSS OF TRACTIONS IS FELT AND THE CAR WANDERS INTO A DIFFERENT LANE. BREAKING PERFORMANCE WAS AFFECTED AS WELL. THE STOCK TIRES THAT CAME WITH THE CAR PERFORM POORLY IN THE RAIN WHEN DRIVING AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. OVER ALL THE CAR IS GREAT AND THE TIRES SHOULD BE INSPECTED. I LEARNED THAT I WAS NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO EXPERIENCED THIS AND DECIDED TO CONTACT NHTSA.

WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD 55 MPH WAS THE SPEED LIMIT THE DING WENT OFF AIR BAG LIGHT FLASHED IN RED BUT QUICKLY WENT OFF. DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO READ WHAT IT SAID JUST SEEN AIRBAG ON THE DASHBOARD WHERE THE SPEED IS BIG LETTERS.

MY REAR PASSENGER TIRE WENT FLAT, WHILE REMOVING THE STUDS , ONE BROKE OFF, THIS IS A NEW 2019 VEHICLE, THIS VEHICLE IT TOO NEW TO HAVE THE STUD BREAK OFF MY VEHICLE WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE ON NOVEMBER 19TH.IT HAD 32 MILES WHEN I PULLED OFF THE CAR LOT. IN JANUARY, NEW BREAKS HAD TO BE PUT ON IT DUE TO WEAR AND LOUD SOUND. THEY WERE REPLACED. IN FEBRUARY, TERRIBLE SOUND COMING FROM BREAKS AGAIN. TAKEN TO SHOP, WORKED ON THEM AND ADVISED THEY JUST NEEDED TO BE OILED. BROUGHT BACK TO SHOP EARLY MARCH, SAME PROBLEM, THE WHOLE BREAK SYSTEM WAS REPLACED. NOW HERE IS IT MARCH 23RD AND THE SAME THING IS STARTING TO HAPPEN AGAIN, SCREETCHING, LOUD SOUND COMING FROM BREAKS.

I WENT TO TURN ON MY CALL AND MY BACK WINDOW ON THE PASSENGER SIDE SHATTERED. IT DIDN'T HAVE PHYSICAL DAMAGE TO IT AND IT SHATTER IN AND OUT IT WAS LIKE IT WASN'T INSTALLED CORRECTLY OR SOMETHING. IT DAMAGED MY PAIN ON THE DOOR AND THE INSIDE PLASTIC AS WELL.

I WAS WAITING IN RED LIGHT BETWEEN SUNRISE BLVD AND US1 WHEN A VEHICLE IN WRONG WAY CRASH MY VEHICLE IN THE FRONT. THE WHEEL AIR BAG DEPLOYED WRONG. I SAW THE RIGHT PART OF THE AIR BAG FLAT WHILE THE LEFT PART WAS FINE. IT CAUSED INJURES IN MY CHIN AND TONGUE, 5 RIBS, IN THE RIGHT PART OF MY BODY, BROKEN AND STERNUM BROKEN TOO. CAUSING POSSIBLE CINTURILLA IN MY HEART AND BRUISES IN MY LUNGES.

BRAKE ACTIVATED AND AT A COMPLETE STOP, THEN THE CAR STARTED MOVING FROM A COMPLETE STOP WHILE FOOT IS ALL THE WAY ON THE BRAKE. CAR DID NOT REGISTER SPEED AT THIS TIME.
