Consumer Description
THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO PULL MY CAR TO THE LEFT SIDE. THE STEERING WHEEL DID NOT RESPOND TO THE DIRECTION RIGHT AND FELT AS IF IT HAD GONE "LIMP". THE FRONT OF THE CAR HIT THE LEFT CENTER MEDIAN GUARDRAIL. I SUFFERED HERNIATED DISCS AND LUMBAR BACK INJURY. THE DRIVERS AIRBAG NEVER DEPLOYED RESULTING IN MY HEAD HITTING THE STEERING WHEEL. I SUFFERED A CONCUSSION AND CERVICAL NECK INJURY. THERE WERE NO OTHER CARS INVOLVED AND NO WEATHER CONDITIONS. ALSO I WAS GOING BELOW THE SPEED LIMIT. I CALLED HONDA AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT EXPLAIN NOR HELP ME WITH THE AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYING AND THE CONCUSSION I SUFFERED. THEY ALSO COULD NOT HELP ME REGARDING THE STEERING WHEEL PULLING LEFT THEN "GOING LIMP". I AM STILL SEEING A NEUROLOGIST AND PHYSICAL THERAPIST FOR MY LUMBAR AND CERVICAL INJURIES, AND NEUROLOGICAL SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS. *TR
