Takata recall. I was involved in a minor, slow speed accident where my vehicle rear-ended the vehicle in front. The airbags deployed with such force that both front passenger windows were blown out and the windshield cracked. I suffered partial hearing loss as a result. Vehicle was moving at approximately 15-20 mph on a highway at the time.
- Los Angeles, CA, USA
Driving from work on a snowing day, going about 25 to 35. The rear of the car started going to the other side of lane. I traded to get control but it was to late. I hit a guard rail and the air bags never came out.

I am 5'2", fat and wanted either an on/switch for my front driver's airbag, or I was going to apply under your guidelines to have the driver's airbag disconnected. BMW apparently can do neither since their airbag is tied into its electrical system. I have gotten nothing but a run around regarding what for me is a safety issue. I don't want to be decapitated in the event of a crash. Do you have any enforcement authority over this that would make BMW comply with your requirements?
