Description of the problem	I was driving home from a camping trip with my family on 9/2/13 on hwy 2 in laurel hill, fl, traveling approximately 50 mph on a two-lane road when the air bag light on the dashboard illuminated and shortly thereafter the driver-side airbag deployed. Nanoseconds later the passenger-side airbag deployed. I managed to keep from running off the road and pulled off onto the narrow shoulder. My wife's knee was hurt pretty badly as the dash opened up and hit her knee when the airbag deployed tearing the skin off her left knee and bruising both the knee and surrounding tissue and the inner portion of her right knee as well. Her injury did not require any hospitalization. I contacted chrysler because i read online that there was a recall (m35) that affected my year model and make. They told me that my vin was not included in the recall though our experience seemed to match up with the recall. The jeep is currently at the dealership following an inspection and the case remains open. *js

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
