Hi,
My daughter has just been involved in an accident, which resulted in her hitting the windscreen with her head. She was front seat passenger, her boyfriend, who was driving was also thrown forward and his head struck hers, neither airbag deployed which would have saved the head injuries. The impact to the car was frontal.
Talking to other Clio owners, some have experienced problems with wiring under the seats, and in some cases Dealers have said this is quite a common fault. If a warning light does not come up on the dashboard, you are left of the opinion that everything is OK. The only time you will find out is when you need them.
Has anyone else got any knowledge of these type of problems. We consider ourselves very lucky as the injuries, although painful, are able to be treated and a full recovery is expected. Somebody else may not be so lucky.
I would appreciate help from owners who have any experience of similar faults.
Alan Mason.
You are right on principle about airbag function, however, airbags on this model and other cars of this period have to be replaced every 10 years (todays automobiles every 15 y). Your car is from 1992 and we are 14 years later...
