Air Bag Not Deploy problem #1

Tl-the contact owns a 2013 Volvo Xc70. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 42 mph, a deer jumped in front of the vehicle. As a result, the contact crashed into the deer and the air bags failed to deploy during the accident. The contact then turned the ignition key to the off position and the front driver side air bag inadvertently deployed. In addition, the air bags violently deployed with force causing the contact and the front driver seat to be pushed out of position and into the rear of the vehicle. The contact sustained a traumatic brain injury that required medical attention. The vehicle was destroyed. A police report was filed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 4,009.

Air Bag problem #2

Please be advised I purchased a very unsafe vehicle. It collapsed while I was driving it. I am unable to find a lawyer that will represent me. I spent all the money I have. Approximately five thousand dollars. My car insurance was increased and I haven't been able to find a loaner vehicle. I have lost two jobs or more counting before a car accident last year. Why can't I find a lawyer to represent me? [xxx] [xxx] telephone email [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
