Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was just pulling out of my driveway going less than 5 mph when i heard what sounded like a gunshot. i put my foot on the brake and looked over my right shoulder and saw nothing. i paused approx. 5 seconds before deciding to pull forward and to the side of the road to investigate. i took my foot off the brake and as the car began to roll forward there was a tremendous explosion and the passenger airbag deployed, shattering my windshield. i have asthma and have been having significant breathing problems since the occurrence.*ak
