MY 2008 CADILLAC ESCALADE EXT HIT ON DRIVERS SIDE WHEEL WELL AND DRIVERS SIDE DOOR, I HAVE TWO CURTAIN AIRBAGS ON THIS SIDE AND THEY DID NOT DEPLOY. BOTH OF MY FRONT WHEELS WERE DETACHED DUE TO THE IMPACT OF A MID-SIZE MINI VAN AT A RATE OF OVER 40 MILES PER HR. JUST A CAUSE FOR CONCERN SINCE THE SENSOR WAS LOCATED IN THE AREA OF THE IMPACT. WAS INFORMED BY A LOCAL DEALERSHIP THAT A SIMILAR MAKE & MODEL HAD BOTH CURTAIN AIRBAGS DEPLOY DUE TO OWNER SIMPLY RUNNING A 6INCH CURB. *TR
