2016 Kia Sportage Airbags Problems

Your wife was in a serious accident where your Sportage was hit from both sides, but the airbags failed to deploy when they should have. This is a critical safety issue since airbags are designed to protect occupants during collisions. The dealer will need to inspect the airbag system, sensors, and wiring to determine why the system didn't activate.
