- New Holland, PA, USA

The contact owns a 1999 Chevrolet Malibu. While turning into the parking lot at an unknown speed, the tire struck the curve and the passenger side air bag deployed. Approximately five minutes later, the driver side air bag deployed. The weather was sunny and the streets were dry. The contact feels that this was a safety issue because he could have been seriously injured. A police report was filed. The failure caused the windshield to shatter. The contact sustained a concussion and was rushed to the emergency room. The failure mileage was unknown.

Small bump accident air bags are suppose to be for moderate to heavy frontal accidents. Yet the air bags deployed on my vehicle when my daughter had a accident where she barley bumped the vehicle ahead of her. There was no damage to either vehicle except the air bags. In fact, she was injured more by the bags (she was dazed and had a head ache) then the bump. If it had not been for the air bags deploying there would have been no damage of any kind. If air bags are for moderate and worse accidents why are they deploying on a slight impact accident?

- Gastonia, NC, USA

My air bag light stays on. I called the dealer and the guy said it meant the air bags didn't work and they wouldn't come out even in a crash and since the warranty was gone I would have to pay to have it fixed. My floor board floods when it rains. There has been about an inch of water in my floor at one time and has flooded everytime it rains. I was told that too would have to be paid for out of my pocket. My anti-lock system messed up while it was still under warranty and was fixed but I had to replace the pads in November after only buying the car in April. It's March and I need new brakes again. The car was in the shop in the summer because it went dead while going down the interstate and had to be towed in. It was still under warranty so they fixed it at no charge. It seems to me that since this car doesn't even have 50,000 miles on it that it shouldn't be falling apart like it is.
