While driving I thought the drv side front tire had popped. I let off the gas/ tried to pull the vehicle over. I was in the L lane near an interstate entrance. When I was near the barrier the vehicle jumped left. It made contact with the concrete wall, I pulled the wheel back towards the right. When I did this the broken left front susp/tire went beneath the car. The auto was catapulted onto the concrete barrier on it's nose. The car was completely airborne at this time (for appx 150-200 ft) part of the car hit the concrete pillar of the underpass and flung my car back to the ground. Both airbags deployed when the vehicle came down. Even with my restraint on my body slid under the steering wheel when the car catapulted on the concrete ledge. When the driverside airbag deployed the got the left side of my head where my abdomen should have been. The damages: Bumper assembly, front, cover, front bumper, headlamp assy, halog headlamps aim/lamp, side marker, fender front, skirt, inner fendert wheel, front L, knuckle, steering L/F, arm, lower control L/F windshield, airbag, steering wheel, airbag, instrument pnl panel, rocker lt, pnl, front door out, repair I received a concussion from the airbag/back problems etc this car is up for auction on the 18th, it is my hopes that it is not placed back on the roadways. Who knows what other types of damage the vehicle sustained, the crash was never correctly evaluated. The local police listed I hit a metal guard rail.
