problem #2

Express 8-cyl

  • 210,000 miles
I opened the passenger side door of my vehicle and leaned into the van to start my vehicle. The middle of my back was touching the bar above the airbag compartment when the airbag went off directly into by back. My vehicle had not been started yet, nor had it been in an accident, it was parked in my driveway on my property.
