“This was an accident where the airbag deployed and exploded. The driver developed (within 3 days) developed double chemical pneumonia (hospitalized for 15 days) - attributed to inhalation of the talcum powder used to lubricate the airbag. The driver remained in the car for approx. 30 min. Following the accident. I am looking for any information which may exist on other injuries/accidents of this type.”
