Tl* takata recall. The contact owned a 2007 chrysler 300. While parked, the vehicle began to roll away. The contact was able to gain access to the vehicle and the air bag inadvertently deployed and caught fire. The contact sustained burns to the face, hair, right arm, and a gash in the left leg. Medical attention was required. The contact stated that her clothing also caught fire. A police report was not filed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure.
Takata recall. I just received a paper in the mail and I'm reading it and it says airbag recall for my vehicle. I looked up my vehicle and it says there was a recall for both driver and passenger airbags. I recently just crashed my vehicle and no airbag deployed and I tried to fight with my dealership about it and all they said was 'you signed a paper knowing they didn't deploy', what world would someone buy a vehicle knowing they don't deploy?
