Okay, so I bought a 95 Lumina LS about 5 months ago for $3200, which wasn't that bad since it had pretty low miles on it and was in good shape.
The other day, I am looking at the steering wheel and I see a little tear right where the leather folds to let the airbag out. It's about 2 inches long, but somehow I never noticed it before. Anyways, it's torn a little more lately and now I can peel it back and see what I believe is where the airbag should be. I can see a yellow piece of plastic that has a few holes in it in a cross pattern. Is that what inflates the bag?
Did I get sold a car without bags that I could have died in?
Do I have anyway to sue the guys that sold me the car, or has it been too long?
I looked over the paperwork and there is nothing mentioning the problem, and I know the guys didn't say anything about it. Is it legal to sell a car without bags in Idaho? I know it is in Washington.
By the way, I'm not exactly too trusting of these guys. They sold me the car with a totally empty tank (below 2nd red bar), and screwed me on my trade-in by about $400.
Any help greatly appreciated.
---UPDATED---
Got some pics this morning from my phone. No pics available for the passenger's side. Please excuse the crap quality.
