1 Side/window Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 03/28/2000

The driver was traveling at 50mph along a straight highway when sudddenly the steering wheel started moving violently from side to side. The driver was unable to maintain control, left the road and flipped the car several times landing upside down. The driver removed her seatbelt and was attempting to exit through the back broken window when the front airbags very slowly started to inflate. The airbags never fully inflated. The side airbags never inflated. We are anxious to find out if there is a way to determine whether a steering defect lead to the accident.
