Airbags in the car deployed causing me to hit a curb more than once dessimating my passenger side and knocking me through a loop, my insurance company is investigating, but im not sure what the can find out, I know Audi(part of VW) was having problems with airbags deploying because of static charge in low humidity conditions... thank you.
