In the London area, drivers often first suspect an airbag issue when one of these patterns shows up:
- Airbag didn’t deploy even though the crash severity appears to justify deployment.
- Airbag deployed oddly (for example, unexpectedly late/early) or accompanied by a noticeable abnormal event.
- Repeated warning lights or a restraint system fault message that was present before or after the collision.
- Repairs that involve airbag components (inflator, sensor/control unit, wiring harness) where invoices indicate malfunction-related replacement.
Even if you don’t know the technical cause yet, these details matter because they help an attorney connect your injuries to what the restraint system did—or failed to do.
