What 21 owners told NHTSA about the 2015 Volvo V60 Cc Mhev

I was involved in a motor vehicle accident in which I struck a bull moose on Route 2 eastbound in Leominster, MA. I was traveling at approximately 65Mph at the time of the strike. The primary area of impact was the driver's side. The moose struck the front radiator, rolled into the windshield, broke the glass and dented the A pillar, and crumpled the roof a bit as it rolled back and off of the vehicle. The steering wheel was badly damaged and actually stopped the body of the moose from further entering the vehicle and potentially killing me. The primary concern I have with this accident is that not a single one of the many air bags in the vehicle were deployed during the impact. The collision was hard enough that the steel-reinforced steering wheel was bent back like a taco. The front of the vehicle was badly damaged and my speed was less than 30Mph after the impact, after which I drove it into a ditch. I was luckily not badly injured, suffering only a broken nose and severe concussion from my face hitting the moose and/or the steering wheel. I feel like this could've been prevented if the air bags deployed properly since it was a fairly high speed impact.
