First Hyundai Genesis Coupe Crash... Air Bags don't deploy!

WHERE YOU AT MSL82
The Koreans have gotten their allocation of the new 2009 Hyundai Genesis Coupes and it seems like one customer felt his Genesis Coupe could push the limits a little more than he thought possible. Needless to say that he learned the hard way by crashing into the concrete base of a metal light pole.
As you can see from the images, the 2.0T Genesis Coupe you see here was the only car involved in the accident leading us to believe that the driver lost control and the Brembo brakes of the Genesis weren’t strong enough to slow him down.
What’s more interesting is that the airbags failed to deploy. You can see that the front driver side received the most damage. Wonder what Hyundai has to say about this.

hahaha.. hyundai's aren't bad, they are just cheap and the value drops FAST... its not like their the most terrible cars on the road. Hyundai allows people with less means own a luxury-like car they can feel good about.

The ignorance is strong with this one....
As if Hyundai is the only company whose cars have airbags that don't go off 100% of the time.![Roll Eyes](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)
Examples:
Nissan Titan
Toyota Prius
Mazda Tribute
The list can go on...

Hyundai will certainly straighten it out. They have too much at stake at this point.
You car snobs crack me up.
A friend of mine has an 06 Sonata with more miles than my 06 TL. What's the difference? 10 rattles and 15,000 dollars.
I'm not a Hyundai Fan boy, but they're pretty good cars from what I've seen.

Oh...and a final thought. Car companies don't actually make their own airbags. I did some looking. Hyundai's airbags are made by a company called AutoLiv. That Same company makes them for almost everybody else...

Hey TL|GTX, go swallow a Korean co*k and call it a day. Just because one car crashes and airbags dont deploy doesnt mean all of them are pure garbage.
Get off your fucking high horse.
I remember three automotive companies who started more or less the same way Hyundai is right now.. And all are currently major players in the global auto industry. Care to take a guess?
Here's a clue: They're all from Japan and rhyme with Moyota, Monda, and Missan. What say you about those three?

Thats racist comment right there. Nothing but hate and slander in your message.
I might criticize the car company, but never ethnicity who built it. For example, I might say Pontiac Aztec is piece of shit, but never "Stupid ass White Americans" who built that car.
Let the Lord deal with your foul mouth...

Why would the Korean Attorneys and Lawyers not want to pursue this?
And on a side note, I am really disappointed by the racial remarks by some of the Azine members. I would have expected a bit more Class, but I guess I was wrong.
