Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I tried to steer away from a crash by turning the steering wheel hard to the left. My right arm was therefore in the 12:00 position on the steering wheel when the airbag deployed, and threw my right arm into the windshield smashing the windshield and my elbow knocked the rear view mirror off of the window. The seatbelt restrained me appropriately and I had some seatbelt bruising but the airbag severely contused my arm and elbow with possible fractures and crushed bones resulting in my arm being immobilized in a long arm cast. …”
