1995 TOYOTA COROLLA Air Bagsfrontal Problems

THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED IN A LOW SPEED FRONT END COLLISION AND CAUGHT MY CLOTHING AND ME ONE FIRE, CAUSING SECOND DEGREE BURNS ACROSS MY CHEST. I NOW KNOW THAT THERE WERE SO MANY COMPLAINTS OF DRIVERS CATCHING ON FIRE FROM AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT IN 1995 TOYOTA COROLLAS THAT THERE WAS A FIVE MONTH INVESTIGATION OF THE PROBLEM IN 1997 (PE97-017) WHICH DID NOT RESULT IN A RECALL. I AM SHOCKED THAT YOU DID NOT REQUIRE TOYOTA TO RECALL AIRBAGS THAT CATCH DRIVERS ON FIRE. I HOPE THAT YOU RE-OPEN THE INVESTIGATION AND ORDER TOYOTA TO RECALL THESE FAULTY PRODUCTS.*AK
