Consumer Description

I HAD AN ACCIDENT WHERE A CAR FISH TAILED IN FRONT OF ME SLID DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF MINE. I HIT THE OTHER CAR WHILE GOING 40 MPH, IT WAS A T*BONE COLLISION. MY FRONT AIR BAGS DEPLOYED AT THE TIME OF COLLISION. AFTER GETTING OUT OF THE VEHICLE I NOTICED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WAS LAYING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WITH THE AIR BAG STILL INFLATED. I DO REMEMBER THAT FOR A LONG TIME BEFORE TODAY THE RED AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON. I THOUGHT THIS WOULD CAUSE THE AIR BAGS NOT TO WORK. I DO HAVE PICTURES OF THE DAMAGE, AND THE DEFECT WITH THE AIR BAG. *TR
