Driving on the longbeach freeway when both airbags exploded. There was no one to help me with the problem that I could find, nor could I find anyone to fix the problem with my 2002 nissan altima. I got a number of bruises to my face and body. Have witness and daughter. We were told that there were problems in the past on recalled bags but nothing for 2002 nissan altima's.
