SO NOW, HERE I AM, WITH NO VEHICLE TO DRIVE, AND NO OUTLOOK AS TO HOW LONG THIS IS GOING TO TAKE.

I WAS TRAVELING 20-25 MPH WHEN I NOTICED ANOTHER CAR ABRUPTLY MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN IN FRONT OF ME. THIS CAR WAS TRAVELING THE SAME DIRECTION AS ME. I TRIED TO AVOID HITTING THE CAR BY SWERVING TO THE RIGHT, BUT I CLIPPED THE PASSENGER REAR QUARTER WHICH RESULTED IN A AIRBAG DEPLOYING IN MY VEHICLE . THE IMPACT ON MY VEHICLE WAS ON THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE. THE AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DEPLOYED, BUT THE DRIVER SIDE DID NOT DEPLOY. COULD THIS BE A DEFECT WITH THE AIR BAG PROBLEM OUT THERE CURRENTLY? NOBODY WAS HURT BUT IT MAKES A PERSON WONDER WHAT IF. *JS
