## Narrative
The defective part is: the air bag under the steering column or in that area, on the driver's side. Date of accident: [XXX] --There is a police report but I don't have it yet.  Report number [XXX] I hit a parked car in the middle of the road after turning a corner on [XXX] ..  This info may be relevant for speed questions, I think around ten MPH.  The airbag deployed and became detached from the vehicle, hitting my lower legs causing a severe wound in my left lower leg.  I was in the hospital for five days and had plastic surgery to repair a deep wound. After the collision, I got out of the car.  I got back in to retrieve my purse and noticed that airbag was laying on the floor under the steering column attached to a large black nut detached from the vehicle. Reports and inspections: --Avis Corporation owned the vehicle, I assume they inspected the damage to the vehicle after the accident.  The Liability Insurance Certificate name is Aon Risk Services, Inc.  in the state of Florida --Tetra Tech was my employer and insurer of the vehicle and myself, I'm sure they inspected the vehicle --Sedgwick manages claims for Safety National Casualty Corporation on behalf of Tetra Tech, Inc..  I'm sure a Sedgwick representative is aware of the vehicle condition and inspection. --I do not have knowledge about the extent or focus of their investigations.  Sincerely [XXX]  INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
