The contact stated while driving at 40 mph the driver's side curtain and seat airbag deployed with no collision. This happened where a side street meets a main street. He went to the emergency room and was suffering from frequent headaches and hearing loss in left ear. He has to see a specialist for the hearing loss. The rear passenger's hand was pinched between the window and airbag. This caused swelling in his hand. The insurance company stated it was a manufacturing defect. No corrections have been made at this time.
I hit a medium size pothole in the road and my passenger side airbags inflated. Dealer says the module says the car was in danger of tipping over and there was no malfunction. My rear tire was damaged as there is a bubble in the sidewall but there was no undercarriage damage and there was no impact.
