Driver's side airbag deployed while driving 55 mph. Vehicle was going over a piece of ice on road. The consumer pointed out that the vehicle passed over a piece of ice or a small piece of rock which caused the air bag to deploy.

When vehicle was hit on the driver's side, between the front and rear doors, there was no deployment of the driver's side or passenger's side air bags. Also, driver's side seat belt came loose from the post.

Passenger seat mounted side air bag deployed without a crash. It appears there is damage to undercarriage where srs is located.

While driving at 65 mph driver heard explosion, side airbags deployed without any kind of impact, causing loss of vehicle control. Due to white powder within airbag, destroyed interior and moulding of vehicle. Dealer claimed there was undercarriage damage, and could cause side airbags to deploy. But there was no evidence of side impact.
