What owners wrote
Two car collision at an intersection .city streets. Both cars in motion. Air bag deployed but didn't inflate. Smoke filled interior. Attending fireman at first thought the car was on fire. Examination showed that smoke was coming from a rupture in the air bag near the point where the bag was connected to the steering wheel.
Had an head on car accident on the street my tire blow out and hit a light pole. The passenger air bag did not come out, also the driver airbag came out but it was deflated no air was in it or what ever makes an air bag blow up. In which cost me to hit my head on the steering wheel.
