Air Bags

MY SON HAD AN ACCIDENT IN OUR 1995 LAND ROVER DISCOVERY. HE LOST CONTROL AND HIT A PARKED CAR WITH THE FRONT OF THE LAND ROVER AND THE INSURANCE COMPANY CONSIDERS THE LAND ROVER A TOTAL LOSS. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS INJURED, BUT WE ARE CONCERNED THAT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER TOLD US THAT WITH THIS MUCH DAMAGE THE AIRBAGS SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED. I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE SOMETHING THAT SOME REGULATORY AGENCY SHOULD BE AWARE OF. WE PURCHASE VEHICLES WITH SAFETY EQUIPMENT AND HAVE NO WAY OF DETERMINING IF THEY WILL ACTUALLY WORK WHEN NEEDED.*AK

WHILE DRIVING MY 1995 LAND ROVER DISCOVERY, WHEN EVER MY CELL PHONE ( MOTOROLA STARTAC) WOULD RING, THERE APPEARED TO BE A LOT OF CHATTER (CLICKING OF RELAYS SOUND) FROM THE FUSE BOX. I FINALLY AFTER REPLACING ALL THE FUSES AND RELAYS , REPLACED ALTERNATOR TWICE AND A NEW BATTERY , THE PHONE COMPANY NOTIFIED ME THAT THE CELL PHONE WOULD NOT WORK CORRECTLY WITH THEIR NEW (AT&T/PACBELL) SYSTEM AND REPLACED IT WITH A NOKIA. THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY AFTER MAKING THE CELL PHONE SWAP.
