My wife was driving our 1997 voyager up a gravel driveway about 5-10 MPH. Both the driver side and passenger side air bags inadvertently deployed. There was no collision of any kind. My wife and daughter both suffered bruising and facial abrasions from the air bags. It is not covered by insurance stating it is a mechanical failure. I feel this is very dangerous and should covered by chrysler for all parts and service.

I purchased a vehicle in 1997 from a friend. All of a sudden my horn stopped working. I have replaed the fuses. I have checked all the wires. I have replaced the horn. Their is nothing wrong. I think the problem is where the airbag is behind the steering wheel. What do I do. I dont think that is my responsibility if their is a problem with the air bag is it?
While traveling 25-30 vehicle ran off road and hit a pipe with left front wheel. Air bags did not deploy.
