Description of the problem	The accident occurred in republic, mo at the intersection of hwys. 60 and p. I entered the intersection traveling west on hwy 60, making a left turn (south) on a green arrow onto hwy p. A driver traveling east on hwy 60 ran a red light (she claims it was yellow) and struck my vehicle on the front passenger side. At the time of the accident, i was wearing my seat belt. But, as the airbag deployed and the momentum of the crash was set in motion, i was thrown sideways into the passenger seat. My right leg struck the gearshift (my car is a standard), shattering my right femur. I underwent surgery to have a rod installed in my leg and spent 5 days in cox south hospital in springfield, mo. I believe the seat belt failed (was sprung) when my elbow smashed down on the seat belt mechanism when my car was struck. One injury recorded at the time of the crash was an indentation on my right elbow and horrible bruising--an injury incurred i surmise when my elbow struck the seat belt mechanism, releasing the belt. On the xa, the seat belt mechanism sits up high--i often rested my elbow on it when shifting--which i now realize was unsafe. I have found no evidence of recalls for this extended seat belt mechanism, but obviously it is a safety issue during an accident, as my accident shows. After the accident, my nephew "tested" my theory by striking his elbow on the seat belt mechanism in the manner i had described. He reported that the belt popped open easily.

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.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
