The system that appeared to malfunction is the front airbags sensors. I drove past an accident on the freeway the left by some rocks/debris in the road. I steered away from the rocks avoiding my tires, however, both of my front airbags deploy as if I collided with something. This has completely disabled my vehicle on the freeway, and shattered my windshield. I had the car towed to a repair shop for further diagnostic, and they confirmed there is no front end impact or collision on my vehicle. There is minor undercarriage scrapping, but it isn't near the airbag sensor. There were no warning lights on my vehicle prior to this, and my vehicle has been in no accidents. What caused my airbags to deploy if there was no impact?.
My collision assist keeps deactivating while driving. This causes my car to go into neutral. However there is not read of an issue with my vehicle per dealership.

While driving out of a driveway, a car pulled near my car. At that time, the car was stationary. My wife heard the pre-collision warning. The the car completely shutoff or stalled. Turned off the car completely by turning the key. Then turned the car back on. Lucky there was no accident.
