Consumer Description

CAR WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY RUNNING, I WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, MY HUSBAND GOT OUT TO RETRIEVE AN ITEM IN THE HOUSE & SHUT THE DOOR, ALL DRIVER SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THE FUMES/SMOKE FROM THE AIRBAGS BURNED MY THROAT, I HAVE HAD THROAT DISCOMFORT FOR 5 DAYS. THE COST TO PUT THE CAR BACK TOGETHER IN WORKING ORDER IS $3000. ONE PERSON AT VOLVO SERVICE IN THOUSAND OAKS, CA. SAID THAT IT SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED BUT OUT OF WARRANTY SO I HAVE TO PAY THE $3000 IF I WANT IT REPAIRED. *NM
