Consumer Description
VEHICLE WAS SOUTHBOUND ON COUNTY ROAD AND ATTEMPTED TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN AT THE INTERSECTION, WHEN THE CAR STRUCK THE SOUTH EMBANKMENT OF THE T INTERSECTION, AS DRIVER WAS UNABLE TO NAVIGATE THE TURN. NONE OF THE SIDE OR FRONT AIRBAGS IN THE CAR DEPLOYED AS A RESULT OF THE CRASH. I AM ALSO UNSURE IF THE SEAT BELT HAD OPERATED CORRECTLY (SEAT BELT WAS BEING WORN AT THE TIME OF THE CRASH). THE DRIVER'S HEAD HIT THE SIDE WINDOW AND AS A RESULT HE SUSTAINED A HEAD INJURY AND AN EYE INJURY RESULTING IN OPTIC NERVE DAMAGE AND COMPLETE LOSS OF VISION IN THE EYE. I UNDERSTAND THERE WERE PROBLEMS WITH THE AIRBAGS ON THESE VEHICLES WITH A POSSIBLE RECALL ISSUED. I DO HAVE ALL THE CORRESPONDING ACCIDENT REPORTS, MEDICAL REPORTS, ETC.
