AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)05/15 Report--

As an important safety protection device on the vehicle, the airbag can distribute the impact force evenly in the head and chest, prevent the fragile passenger body from directly colliding with the car body, greatly reduce the possibility of injury and effectively protect passengers. However, today, Mr. Jiang in Beijing reported to the media that the front of his Geely new energy car was deformed and sunken, but the airbag did not eject.

According to Mr. Jiang, on the evening of March 21, he was driving a Dihao GSe New Energy vehicle on Erwei Road in Chaoyang District, waiting for the traffic light at the intersection of Erwei and Sijing. After the green light came on, he drove straight, when a Toyota SUV on the right side of the road ran the red light and collided with Mr. Jiang's car. According to Mr. Jiang, the speed of the Toyota SYV was so fast that he could not reflect it at all. The front of the car directly hit the left side of the Toyota SUV, and the other car was knocked over.

According to photos provided by Mr. Jiang, the front part of his Geely new energy vehicle was hit violently in the accident, the collision beam and bumper were damaged, and the hood was protruded upward. To the puzzlement of Mr. Jiang, the airbags in the main and passenger seat of the car did not eject in such an intense accident.

It is understood that the principal and co-driver of Mr. Jiang's Geely Dihao GSe 2018 is equipped with two airbags, front side airbags and front and rear head airbags. Mr. Jiang said, "the front of the car crashed straight into the left side of the other side of the vehicle, and the airbags in the front and passenger seat should not have popped out."

After the incident, Mr. Jiang's car was sent to the 4S store for repair. According to Mr. Jiang, 4S store staff said that the airbag did not eject because the car's collision angle, force position and other factors did not meet the ejection conditions. Mr. Jiang questioned this: "whether it has been nearly two months now, there has never been a test report on the quality of the vehicle. The 4S store only relies on a few photos to roughly examine the situation of the vehicle and then come to the conclusion that it is very unreasonable. I hope Geely manufacturers will provide a detailed test report."

In response to the problems reflected by Mr. Jiang, Consumer report contacted the 4S store. The after-sales staff of the 4S store said that Mr. Jiang's airbag ejected on the side of the vehicle at that time, while the airbag in the front and passenger seat did not eject, mainly because the collision angle did not meet the condition of airbag ejection.

In response to the problem of vehicle detection, 4S store after-sales staff said: "Mr. Jiang's vehicle after the collision part of the line damage, the current vehicle can not be electrified, so for the time being unable to carry out detailed testing." At present, the insurance company is nearing the completion of the relevant compensation work, if the car owner still has doubts about the quality of the vehicle, you can invite a third-party authority to investigate, we will cooperate fully. "

Why Mr. Jiang's vehicle did not eject the airbag after a severe collision also requires manufacturers and third-party appraisal agencies to provide more detailed testing. For car companies, consumers have certain doubts about vehicles, car companies and dealers should make a professional explanation, and provide perfect after-sales service and solutions, rather than simply a few words to deal with.
