I was driving home. out of no where my drivers side - side airbag deployed spontaniously. i began losing control of the vehicle because the noise was so loud, and starteling that i thought someone struck my drivers side. i am left side - hearing impaired, my whole left side went numb and began to ring piercingly. i gained control back of the vehicle and tried to exit the truck. i was engulfed in chemicals and couldn't see. i tried to open the door and couldn't as the airbag blocked my exit, and / or rolling down the window. when the airbag began to deflate i was able to exit the vehicle. i was fortunate my son and husband were behind me as we drove home. they had no idea what was happening as i jumped out of my truck with a white cloud of fumes behind me. i now feel as though my ear has been stabbed and my nose/throat are burning. *tr
