Consumer Description

WAS DRIVING ALONG A GRADED DIRT ROAD WHEN PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG DEPLOYED SUDDENLY. THERE WAS NO SIDE IMPACT WHATSOEVER, AND WAS NOT ABLE TO DETERMINE ANY CAUSE OF AIRBAG DEPLOYING. TWO PASSENGERS IN THE CAR SUFFERED TEMPORARY RINGING IN THEIR EARS AND HEADACHES, BUT NO SIGNIFICANT INJURIES OCCURRED, THANK GOODNESS. HAVE CONTACTED DEALER FOR INFORMATION ABOUT REPAIRS, BUT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO FIX IT YET. *TR
