NHTSA complaint #10402764, filed 2011-05, 41,000 miles“Description of accident ~ van slid on ice, hitting a mailbox.

Noticed several holes punctured as the airbags reached their maximum capacity, showing large burnt-like holes. Both my daughter and I were in the car. She was in passenger's seat, with her backpack in lap, which saved her from injury, thank goodness! Unfortunately, my legs were pinned in vehicle, burnt and cut by the airbags & debris. …”
