“Takata recall - I had head-on collision accident on 02/03/2015, steering wheel and leg air bag was deployed, but caused me injury after it deployed to my hand, fingers and knees. Once leg air bad deployed, my right kneed hit the switch underneath the driver seat and caused injury. Mercedes don't install this switch underneath the seat anymore and I believe there was flaw in design and location of this switch and now they changed the location of switch. They might have found something in their testing. …”
