Takata recall i was involved in an accident while driving my 2017 ford f150 on december 20, 2017. the driver air bag curtain deployed and trapped my head down against my left shoulder. the bag did not deflate, so i was forced to retrieve my knife from my belt and cut the bag open. the contents of the bag quickly filled the cab with white powdery smoke which i inhaled. i now have rough breathing while inhaling. i have been to my doctor and was prescribed azithromycin 250mg pak tab teva. this was a temporary cure, but the rough breathing is again present. please provide the propellant name in these airbags, so i will know how to treat my problem.
Vehicle was involved in a collision wherein it "t-boned" a vehicle stopped across a roadway at 60mph. i was traveling straight in the left lane of a divided highway. the steering hub airbag did not deploy, and the shoulder harness did not prevent me from striking the steering wheel hub , which failures resulted in breaking my sternum. i also received a whiplash.
For the second time in two months, i have had to return the vehicle to the dealer because a hose comes off the air bag. this causes an alarm and causes the passenger air bags to fail. this chronic failure puts the passenger at risk any time it decides to fail. if the driver does note the small light, they could operate for years with no passenger protection. this should be permanently fixed. twice in two months is a chronic failure and may be a design flaw.. it makes no difference, it is that way moving, standing still or idling.
