MEMORY issue?!

Post Reply New Topic

Maybe I'm overreacting, but I'm pretty distressed about this...

My car has a recall that there is a problem with the airbags on both sides and will IMPALE the driver and passenger upon deployment. My mom just "reminded" me of this, but this is literally the first time I have heard of it.

She then proceeded to show me TWO notices about it and said that she has already told me about it and given them to me, but that I brushed it off. (They are addressed to my dad whose name is also on the car, so that's why she opened the mail.) She INSISTS that I knew about this and it's my fault for not doing anything about it, and she's super mad at me for being a jerk and I guess thinks I'm being a belligerent prideful liar. But this is literally the first time I have seen or heard of this.

I drive a lot and very long distances, and I would never knowingly drive around knowing that in the case of a car accident, I would be impaled and die!! COME ON!! ! Reading the notice completely freaked me out, and you'd think she'd realize that my reaction is pure, but she doesnt seem to care or empathize.

I guess the situation will diffuse, but I'm pretty concerned about the memory thing... how could I have absolutely NO recollection of something like this? I would say that I haven't had any memory issues in the past, but maybe I have and just don't remember them?!? I have no way of knowing if there is anything else that I have completely forgot!!

I very much doubt there is anything wrong with your memory. Pound to a penny she is showing you the letters for the first time......

Your mom is also probably worried that something may happen.

The only thing you can do is get the car mended as soon as you can.

I don't remember things if there is not a visual representation to stick something in my mind - but this sounds like she may be over-reacting.
