I was driving my 2007 Honda Accord sedan approximately 30mph on a highway service drive when my passenger side curtain airbag (front and rear) deployed without any cause. No collision occurred and there were no passengers in the car. There was no damage to the car except what was caused by the airbag deployment. I contacted the Michigan state police and was told because there was no collision I did not require a police report and an officer was not sent to the scene.

I was driving my 2007 Honda Accord and a piece of debris was in the road. Something hit the bottom of my car and caused the air bags to deploy on the passenger side front and back and also seat airbag. The airbags never inflated, just dropped down like a curtain and all the wrinkles are still in there.

We were driving on highway 75 in richardson, tx on 4/23/08 about 9pm on a stormy night with a lot of lightning and rain and the passenger side air bag and passenger side curtain airbags came out with a very loud gun shot like sound but did not fully inflate. My wife and I were trying to figure out what happened to cause them to do that so we slowed down and pulled over to the side of the highway. We thought we had been shot at or something was thrown at the car because we were not hit by another auto. I got out and looked the car over and found no reason for the airbags and curtain to do that. My wife was thoroughly shaken and is still "gun shy" so to speak today riding in any vehicle. We started to get back on the highway and a few car lengths down the road realized that we also had a flat on the front right tire. Honda says we ran over something that caused the airbags to deploy and that it was an insurance issue since we coincidentally had a flat after the airbags partially deployed. We obviously did run over something to cut the tire but no reason to make the airbags partially deploy and we certainly never expected side impact air curtains and airbags to deploy even if we ran over something. The Honda serviceman said whatever we hit raised the back floorboard 2 inches - we think in that car that low to the ground that we would have heard it hit and/or felt it hit if it did that much damage. We have had the car since last September and have not had one complaint and the outside of the car is just like brand new - not even a scratch on it. We have pictures of the car with the defected airbags and curtain shown with an "undamaged" body. The air curtain you can tell never inflated - looks like new with all the wrinkles and folds. It never hit my wife at all. We surely thought Honda would have stood behind their products better than this.

I was involved in a motor vehicle accident in which my 2007 Honda Accord was hit on the drivers side at approx twenty miles per hour. The side impact air bags did not deploy. The point of impact was on the drivers side door.
