problem #45

The driver's side airbag deployed in a low speed front end collision and caught my clothing and me one fire, causing second degree burns across my chest. I now know that there were so many complaints of drivers catching on fire from airbag deployment in 1995 Toyota Corollas that there was a five month investigation of the problem in 1997 (PE97-017) which did not result in a recall. I am shocked that you did not require Toyota to recall airbags that catch drivers on fire. I hope that you re-open the investigation and order Toyota to recall these faulty products.
