2005 ISUZU ASCENDER Air Bagssidewindow Problems

I SWERVED TO MISS CAR CROSSING CENTER LINE AT WHICH TIME THE SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED UNEXPECTEDLY. THERE WERE NO COLLISIONS OR INJURIES, JUST THE UNEXPECTED AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT. *TR

DECEMBER 22ND MY SON WAS DRIVING THE FAMILY ISUZU ASCENDER, (BASICALLY AN UPSCALE RE-BADGED CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER) WHEN WITHOUT ANY WARNING ALL THE SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. FORTUNATELY HE WAS ABLE TO SAFELY STOP THE VEHICLE, ALBEIT HE WAS SEVERELY STUNNED, DAZED, AND HIGHLY CONFUSED FROM THE ABRUPT EXPLOSION, AND VIOLENT FORCEFUL PROJECTION OF THE BAGS. WE CONTACTED OUR INSURANCE CARRIER AMERIPRISE, AND FILED A DAMAGE CLAIM (REP 888-404-5365 EXT. 6555 ). A FIELD ADJUSTER CAME TO OUR HOME WHERE WE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED, AND EXAMINED THE CAR FOR POSSIBLE IMPACT OR AN UNKNOWN COLLISION. CONSEQUENTLY SINCE THE AIRBAG DAMAGE WAS APPARENTLY NOT THE RESULT OF AN ACCIDENT; THE INSURANCE COMPANY DENIED OUR CLAIM AND REFERRED US TO ISUZU FOR SATISFACTION. WE CALLED ISUZU AMERICA OWNER RELATIONS SEEKING SOME ASSISTANCE (REP 800-255-6727 EXT 272) HOWEVER WE WERE TOLD WE NEEDED TO TOW THE VEHICLE 54 MILES TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP. ONCE...

1) CAR WAS GOING FROM A CURB TO THE STREET. CURB WAS 4-6 INCHES HIGH. 2) SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED ONCE ALL 4 TIRES WERE ON THE STREET. 3) SIDE AIRBAGS WILL BE REPLACED. *JB
