I WILL GET THE REST OF THE TOTALS OF REPAIRS. I HAVE TO GET THEM FROM MY DAUGHTER. THE AIRBAGS BURST OPEN ON HER AFTER SHE HAD A BLOW OUT. SHE WAS SEVERLY BURNED WITH CHEMICAL IN THE BAGS. HER EYE WAS DAMAGED. SHE LOST TIME FROM HER JOB, 4 TEETH WERE DAMAGED. THANK GOD THERE WASN'T ANY TRAFFIC. THE TRAMA SHE WENT THROUGH WAS AWFUL. AND THERE'S NO TELLING IF HER FACE WILL BE SCARRED. SHE IS 20 AND TRYING TO MAKE IT ON HER OWN. SHOULDN'T CAR DEALERS KNOW IF THEY ARE SELLING RECALLS. SHOULDN'T THE MAZDA DEALER KNOW ABOUT THIS. WE TOOK IT TO A MAZDA DEALER FIRST. THE PRICE OF REPAIR IS OUTRAGEOUS. WHAT IS THE LAW ON RECALLS.
