| Seat Belt problems |
Was driving in motion straight during icy conditions on freeway and truck slid out of control and I drove through ditch never stopped once and side air bags deployed and seat belts all froze up and ceiling fabric was ruined and torn from deployed airbags. I never hit anything and continued to drive right back onto highway.
While driving on a two lane road at ~45 mph,I struck a deer on the front passenger side of the truck. The air bag deployed but did not come out of the center steering. Air bag dust was coming out of the back of the steering wheel, no air bag. I was very confused. The front bumper was pushed in ~2. 5 inches. I am fortunate that I did not hit another car, since the airbag malfunctioned on deployment.
