I was driiving on I-70 in pa at approximately 60-65 MPH when the driver side airbag exploded. I controlled the car and pulled over, contacted the state police and a report was filed. About 40 miles further down the interstate, the passenger side airbag exploded shattering 2/3 of the windshield. Again I pulled over and we got out of the car. I was able to drove to our motel in dc. I have contacted oldsmobile and they had my car inspected on 7-9-02. I was told I would be contacted in 1 to 2 business days, however, no one from oldmobile has contacted me. I have called them several times, however, no one will talk to me about the findings in the inspection. My mother and daughter (who were travelling with me) and I could have been killed when the airbags exploded. I am extremely frustrated and angry with the lack of concern or response from oldsmobile.psoat leyi oih lin lirthe widnedsolmnvin.

No deployment of driver's air bag in collision/failure of seat belts to properly restrain driver in accident causing injury.
