While driving to pick up my daughter my hudband was driving on the interstate and the side airbags deployed for no reason. The front air bags did not deploy. Upon inspection of the car by an insurance collision expert there was no collision or rodents that could have affected the vehicle. It was deemed a mechanical or electrical failure/defect. My husband was traveling at 70 mph he could have lost control of the car and crashed and potentially lost his life. A collision center has confirmed this. The vehicle has been inspected by collision center and insurance collsion expert. There were no warning messages or labels of any kind.
Bought the vehicle on the 24th of April 2018. Had a collision with another vehicle traveling the speed limit of 60 miles an hour. I rear ended the other vehicle after the brakes locked up and I did not stop. The airbags also did not deploy. The entire front end of the vehicle was pushed in due to the collision. It was just considered a total loss and now I don't have a vehicle because of faulty manufacturing.
