Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK WHEN A WOMAN USING HER CELL PHONE CHANGED LANES INTO MY LANE WITHOUT LOOKING. CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO JAM ON MY BRAKES AND SWERVE TO MISS HER. UPON DOING THIS ACTION MY VEHICLE SHUT OFF AND I REAR ENDED HER. I BELIEVE THERE IS A DEFECT IN THE IGNITION SYSTEM AS I HAVE ALSO HAD MY IGNITION LOCK UP AND COULDN'T GET THE KEY OUT. WHEN MY AIR BAG DEPLOYED IT ALSO QUICK DEFLATED. I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN CAUGHT A LONG TIME AGO AND THIS ACCIDENT WOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED. *TR
