Description of the problem	On october 25, me and my wife were traveling on a local street and were blindsided by a car. The car struck us on the driver side front which caused the driver side curtain airbags to deploy. The force of that hit caused us to plow into a concrete barrier wall head on. At this time, the front airbags deployed. However my wife's airbag, the passenger side, exploded immediately causing visible burns to my wife's neck and chest. Upon emergency room exams and follow-up doctor evaluations, the diagnoses was that my wife sustained second-degree chemical burns to her neck and chest, which will require skin grafts from a plastic surgeon.
