Consumer Description

ON JULY 30 2008 THE DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED IN MY 1996 BUICK SKYLARK. I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT WHEN THIS OCCURRED. MINOR INJURIES BRUISES AND A SMALL CUT ON MY CHEST AREA.

UPON CONTACTING THE LOCAL BUICK DEALER, I WAS TOLD MY CAR DID NOT MATCH ANY OF THE RECALL COMPANIES? PERHAPS IT SHOULD HAVE MADE THE CAMPAIGN LIST. *TR
