Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I was involved in an traffic accident when another car turned left in front of my car at a light. The airbags deployed and my seatbelt appeared to work. I only had a minor burn mark probably from the airbag, a bruise on one hand and a bruise on my right knee which probably came from the cover of the lower airbag under the steering wheel. There is no problem with these. My wife, the passenger, has bad bruises, some with scraps, across her body from her left waist to her right shoulder. …”
