Airbag burn/ injury ' my car hydroplaned and crashed against center divider on freeway during rainy weather. the driver-side airbag deployed upon crash and caused a bruise and 2nd degree burn to my left arm (inner forearm). the bruise injury was from the impact of the airbag deployment. additionally, the nissan logo (decal) on the steering wheel impacted my arm and caused a 2nd degree burn - this burn has now left a permanent scar in the shape of the nissan logo on my left arm. i noticed that this is a design defect on the nissan cars ' their nissan logo decals are not flush with the steering surface (like other car manufacturers) and hence can severely impact the driver in case of airbag deployment. *tr
