Driver airbag released gas and smoke. I was just driving down the road. No bumps, did not hit anything. Airbag did not deploy. Gas and smoke was so bad that I had to pull over and get out of the car for air. Dealership said nothing was wrong with airbag.

Airbag did not deploy during a head-on collision. My car was traveling at 40 mph when struck by a 1/2 ton pickup truck coming from the opposite direction. I sustained a severe neck strain(whip lash).
