I HAD AN ACCIDENT AND THE UNDER DASH DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED. IN FRONT OF THE AIR BAG IS A LARGE METAL BRACKET , THAT IS STRAPPED TO THE FRONT OF THE AIR BAG. THE METAL PLATE STUCK ME IN THE SHIN, RIGHT LEG AND CREATED A BONE CONTUSION AND 3 INCH HIGH HEMATOMA. THE HOSPITAL SAID IT WAS THE WORST ONE THEY HAD SEEN 3 MONTHS LATER I AM STILL IN AWFUL PAIN AND OUT OF WORK. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AFTER SPEAKING TO SEVERAL SHOPS WHO SAID THEY HAD NEVER SEEN A DESIGN WITH A STEAL PLATE IN FRONT OF AN AIRBAG. CHRYSLER REFUSED ANY RESPONSIBILITY. THEY DID SEND AN INSPECTOR. MORE SPECIFICALLY THE AIR BAG IS MOUNTED TO THE VAN STRUCTURE THEN, NYLON STRAPS ARE SEWED TO A STEAL PLATE IN FRONT OF THE AIR BAG, A PLASTIC COVER UNDER THE DASH CLIPS INTO THE STEAL PLATE. IN MY CASE THE PLASTIC COVER DROPPED AND BROKE AND STEEL PLATE HIT ME. THERE IS NO WAY POSSIBLE WAY FOR THE ACTUAL AIRBAG TO PROTECT THE DRIVER BEING THE STEAL IN FRONT OF IT. VERY, VERY DISAPPOINTED TO BE SO INJURED BY SOMETHING THEY DESIGNED SO POORLY. THEN THEY REFUSE ANY RESPONSIBILITY. I WOULD HIGHLY CAUTION ANY OTHER CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY DRIVERS. THIS IS NOT SAFE. I AM A YOUNG WOMAN WITH STRONG HEALTHY BONES. I COULDN'T IMAGINE IF A SENIOR PERSON HAD THIS HAPPEN. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME
