| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The knee blocker airbag in my 05 dodge grand caravan opened in a frontal collision. the airbag is behind a steel plate hinged at the bottom of the dash. attached to this plate is the hard plastic panel. the airbag propelled this plate and panel into my shins, disabling me, and when i brought my legs back from the pain, the hard plastic panel dropped in front of my legs and prevented me from returning my feet to the brake. had i been suffering from osteoporosis my legs would have been shattered and i could not have stopped my van, had it continued to roll after the initial collision. *jb |
