Description of the problem | A low speed accident occurred. The driver and passenger airbags deployed. The drivers side airbag exploded rather than inflate, leaving me with no protection.

A debris scorched a hole in front of my shirt. The passenger bag only partially inflated. Speed 30mph. Direct head on collision to side of other vehicle. I have picture but cannot upload right now. This airbag system is dangerous and defective. |
