2001 BMW 325I Air Bagssidewindow Problems

DROVE OVER A SMALL POTHOLE ON A STREET, AND THE SIDE AND CURTAIN AIRBAGS PREMATURELY DEPLOYED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I HAD TO ORDER A NEW SIDE AIRBAG. I AM STILL UNABLE TO ORDER A CURTAIN AIRBAG. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY CONCERN, AS THE AIRBAGS COULD HAVE INJURED MY PASSENGER. THE CAR HAS NO BODY DAMAGE, AND DRIVES PERFECTLY. I HAVE A AIRBAG SIGNAL ON THE DASH. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 BMW 325I. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH ON THE FREEWAY, THE SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE SUDDENLY DEPLOYED. THE FAILURE CAUSED THE ENGINE TO SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. THERE WAS NO IMPACT OR CRASH TO TRIGGER THE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. THE DEALER ADVISED HIM TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSIS AT THE CONTACT'S EXPENSE. HE REFUSED TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT MAY HAVE BEEN A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. THROUGH ONLINE RESEARCH, THE CONTACT FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS THAT WERE IDENTICAL TO HIS FAILURE AND TYPE OF VEHICLE. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 63,000.
