This air bag and seatbelt both malfunctioned clearly the air bag malfunctioned while I was about to cross over a bridge on an interstate.. Ciasing a projectile to shoot me in my eye knocking me unconcouiss and I wasn-??t sure wht happened until hind sight and clearly the foremsic evidence supports this.. I woke up hitting.my head on window roof I was in a ditch barreling down a hill twords the bridges legs it stands on and I was already blind I couldn-??t see sh*t nor was I even able to regain control of the vehicle due to the blunt force trauma to my eye and head it was enough to burst my eye ball give me a hematoma and a contusion in my aye and when I finally stopped at about 200 feet 250 maybe from where I left the road I dead stopped hit the concreate leg of the bridge my hands was brassed on steering wheel pushing bracing my self with everything I had so hard it broke my foot.. no air blag deployed on impact I would-??ve felt it on my out reached arms tht was on the wheel and my face hit steering wheel about 70 it felt like.. it knocked me out cold.. No way in hell the air bag deployed on impact and the seat belt didn-??t lock up no emergency stopping lane control none of tht bs worked.. A matter of fact this air bag caused me severe and worse injuries than the wreck did.. It wasn-??t the air bag tht knocked my eye out it was a projectile from the air bag the bag never mushroomed up period -??I have all the medical records and pics to prove the foremsics are consistent with causing the crash not stopping any injury-??s and thts the seat belt included..

Lease Car: I waited for the light to turn green and proceed into the intersection going east. The other driver was going south and went through the red light hitting my L/D door, fender, bumper, air bag deployed hit me in the face causing swollen bruised eye. Car was towed as of now there is $15,709 damage with drivers side seat belt on National-Global back order. Due to this being a safety item no after market parts are allowed no seat belt to be found. Car is held up in the body shop they will not release. American Honda stated they have no release date on this seat belt called 13 times, called Insurance company will not total car, call dealership no help. 12 months left on lease I am paying for a car I can not drive with no ETA. I am afraid of this front end wher the strutts were bent, tire bent front end complete repair. Honda bulletin states, the seat frame, seat belt must be replaced if air bag is deployed safety item. I trying to get compensation from Honda to return the lease car but the body shop will not release the car. I am a senior who is still working with no transportation to work need help resolving this problem.
