Consumer Description

I WAS INVOLVED IN A LOW SPEED FRONTAL CRASH ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. I WAS BELTED IN AND DIDN'T EVEN TOUCH THE AIRBAG, BUT THE AIRBAG SHOT FLAMES OUT OF THE RIGHT SIDE HOLE BURNING MY ARM LIKE A BLOWTORCH. I HAVE PHOTOS OF THE INJURY AND IT'S HEALING STAGE. I WAS ADVISED TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL FOR STITCHES AS IT SPLIT MY ARM OPEN WIDE, BUT I'D BEEN THERE 5 TIMES IN THE LAST 8 MONTHS AND JUST DRESSED IT MYSELF. THE AIRBAG IS SUPPOSED TO HELP PREVENT INJURY AND IT WAS THE ONLY THING THAT CAUSED AN INJURY! *TT
