On Jan 21, 2025 the drivers side air bag deployed as I was driving. I did not hit or get hit by anyone or anything, I did not run over anything either the airbag deployed on drivers side from the front to the back of my Acura Mdx it was sudden it was random nd damn scary. I was injured from the impact of the air bag . . . I have had my car approximately 6 months I am purchasing from drive now in wichita, KS and am still making payments on this vehicle. .
Vehicle produced a dash warning light for airbag/supplemental restraint system on January 29th or 30th, 2022. Went away and back on again 3 times in the following week. No prior issues related to this. Vehicle has never been in an accident. Acura dealer scanned vehicle 2/5/2022 to find vehicle code 11-11, meaning bad airbag and possibly bad cable reel. No recalls or effort by Acura (contacted by me) to assist with fix. Replacement isn't readily available, nor is a dealer loaner. Part is $1202. 75. Vehicle is 2009 with only 89,7xx miles.
Was told on today show (nbc) that could check to see if Acura air bags need to ne replaced even though not an official recall. Please let me know if these airbags are the ones that are to be replaced and if so, when. Many thanks.
