 Description of the problem"takata airbag" i was in a accident where a person ran a red light, going about 45 mph and i t-bone that person's vehicle, with me going about 40 mph. The airbag delayed on deployment in my vehicle. I had my seat-belt on but i still ended up hitting my chest on the steering wheel and hitting my head on the windshield before airbag deployed. I am trying to figure out if my airbag can get defective over years because of the delay of deployment. I don't know if it is a takata airbag that isn't on the recall list yet or not. I still have the vehicle and the airbag part itself that i can give you the numbers off of. Someone reminded me about the takata airbags so i figured i ask.
