Consumer Description

A MINOR ACCIDENT OCCURED IN A PARKING LOT. THE CAR WAS TRAVELLING AT APPROX. 10 MPH AND HIT THE REAR END OF ANOTHE CAR WHICH WAS STATIONERY. THE AIRBAGS INFLATED AND CAUSED MINOR INJURY TO THE DRIVER AND EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE CAR. A NEW WINDSCREEN IS NEEDED, NEW AIRBAGS NEED TO BE INSTALLED AND THERE MAY BE MORE AS YET UNDIAGNOSED DAMAGE. IT IS MY CONTENTION THAT THE AIRBAGS SHOULD NOT HAVE INFLATED AND THAT THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BY RIGHTS COVER THE COSTS OF ALL DAMAGES TO THE CAR RELATED TO THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAGS.*AK
