Own a previously owned vehicle? Or been in an accident where the airbag deployed? Your airbag system could be at risk.
1. When purchasing a used car, use available resources to verify the car’s history including if the airbag has ever been deployed.
2. Less-than-reputable repair shops have scammed unsuspecting car owners by installing non-functioning or inappropriate airbags rather than properly repairing or replacing the system.
3. Two out of five vehicles “totaled” or given salvage titles are rebuilt and resold. This literally opens cars up for airbag fraud.
4. Avoid airbag fraud: get a vehicle history report on any used car and only use reputable mechanics and body shops when you need to.
