TAKATA RECALL. WHEN IN A "FRONT END COLLISION" AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED (EST. 70-80 MPH), AT IMPACT, NO AIR BAGS WERE DEPLOYED AND RESULTED IN HITTING MY HEAD EITHER AGAINST THE STEERING WHEEL OR THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW (I AM UNSURE, AS I LOST CONSCIOUSNESS FOR SECONDS AFTER THE COLLISION). THIS COLLISION OCCURRED, MOST RECENTLY, ON 08/28/18. I WAS ALSO INVOLVED IN A "FRONT END COLLISION" WITH A SEMI-TRUCK/18-WHEELER IN FEBRUARY OF 2018. THIS WAS ALSO AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED BUT THE IMPACT WAS TO THE PASSENGER SIDE, PREDOMINANTLY. ALTHOUGH I DIDN'T HAVE A PASSENGER, I STILL WAS HIT HARD ENOUGH THAT THE IMPACT JOLTED MY HEAD TO, ONCE AGAIN, HIT MY STEERING WHEEL AND RESULTING IN BEING TRANSPORTED TO THE ER VIA LOS ANGELES FIRE DEPARTMENT. BOTH OF THESE ACCIDENTS OCCURRED ON THE HIGHWAY AND IN MOTION.

AT AMBIENT TEMPERATURES LESS THAN 10 DEGREES, THE ABS LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE UPON FIRST MOVEMENT. THIS DISABLES THE ABS SYSTEM AND THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM, IT WILL ALSO DISABLE THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM IF NOT ENGAGED BEFORE MOVEMENT. AMBIENT TEMP MUST RISE ABOVE 25 DEGREES TO REVERSE THE SYMPTOMS. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD FOR ANYONE THAT LIVES IN A COLD CLIMATE.
