Theres a recent recall on the airbags of the 1999 S80 Volvo that we need our airbags replaced because its a hazard that can lead up to death. Also the electricity keeps zapping down from the car creating no starts or very poor driving, I almost was stranded because the car seems like it wanted to shut down one night I was getting off work, I hit full gas and it only gave me 3 mph and also when I made a right turn one night from work I feel the wheel feel like its coming apart from the inside or loosening I dont know what it is but it feels and sounds rough

Car was parked in my driveway running, I was in the passenger seat, my husband got out to retrieve an item in the house & shut the door, all driver side airbags deployed. The fumes/smoke from the airbags burned my throat, I have had throat discomfort for 5 days. The cost to put the car back together in working order is $3000. One person at Volvo service in thousand oaks, ca. Said that it should not have happened but out of warranty so I have to pay the $3000 if I want it repaired.
