In our experience handling injury claims across Central Texas, airbag problems often surface in a few practical ways:
- Airbag didn’t deploy even though the crash seemed severe enough to trigger a restraint system.
- Airbag deployed incorrectly—for example, deploying when it shouldn’t have, or deploying with behavior that doesn’t match what the vehicle’s safety system typically does.
- Inflator or sensor-related issues that are only discovered after a repair visit, inspection, or recall check.
Because Killeen traffic includes commuters, seasonal travel, and frequent stop-and-go patterns, drivers often don’t realize something is wrong until later—sometimes after follow-up medical visits or after the vehicle is inspected.
