Description of the problem	Takata airbags: knocked unconscious. After turning right onto a street & accelerating to about 20 mph over about 150 yards, i hit a car that was stopped in the street. I had my seatbelt on. The airbag knocked me unconscious for at least 10 seconds. (i weigh 122 lbs & i'm 5 ft 3. 5 in.) i didn't realize i'd been knocked out: i looked down to see a partially inflated airbag. I didn't realize i' been unconscious or that my eyeglasses had been knocked off. Based on what i saw, i thought the airbag hadn't fully inflated. But my 13-year old daughter, who was in the back seat, said she had thought i was dead because she repeatedly called to me after the airbag deployed and i didn't answer. I never heard her or even knew my chest/face was against the airbag. My daughter said my face and chest were slumped against the airbag. I was shocked: all i knew was that i just saw the car i was going to hit, braked, and then saw a partially inflated airbag. But my chest hurt. The next day my chest hurt so much i couldn't press the cap onto a magic marker. The left side of my face felt like i had something on it (like a piece of cloth), and my left cheek at the cheekbone was swollen and bruised. The vision in my left eye was blurry, too. So i went to the er where they did ct scans of my chest and brain. They said i had a mild concussion. I got a partial black eye about 4 days later, and i noticed a 4" by 4" bruise on the outside of my right calf. Even today--28 days after the accident--my chest and calf still hurt. I was only going about 20 mph when the accident happened. I was only starting to accelerate onto a 40 mph street and probably only got to 18 or 20 mph when i saw the car in front of me, hit the brakes, and then hit the car. My car has been declared a total loss because of the deployment of the airbags. My daughter, who had her seatbelt on in the back seat, was unharmed.

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.
