Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The driver's airbag exploded on my left side, cutting my left arm and rendering me deaf in both ears from the impact when I was hit on the left rear panel by a motorcycle, killing the rider. My hearing is permanently damaged and I have sustained back and neck injury. I was in a median between four lanes of traffic on a state road and stationary when hit. My car was turned completely around by the impact and the airbag exploded after I was sitting still, which was a huge shock to me. It was a delayed reaction. …”
