I hit the drivers door of mine pretty hard as my car was slid over about 6 feet. I have bruising on and inside my arm, hip, and leg, and my back is having some problems. Having said that, believe me, having been in an accident with airbag deployment, if the airbag had gone off on my drivers door, I would be in a lot worse shape than I am now. Those things are VIOLENT when they blow. That is why children can be killed by them. I was knocked unconcious for a few seconds by an airbag to the face in one accident.

I am sure that these airbags are working fine...they are just set to go off on an impact that's so hard, you would possibly be killed if the airbag didn't go off. Airbags are not meant to prevent injury, they're meant to prevent death in lethal hits.
