| Air Bag problems |
My airbags deployed after on day of driving home from a day babysitting my niece and nephew I got home parked my car in the garage and that whole night from 11 at night untill about 330 in the morning the loudest sound I've ever herd the equivalent of a bomb detonation explosion went off and im 10 15 feet away painting my garage and next thing I know I look at my mercedes-benz Cls550 2008. All the airbags in the roof and by the back window detonating! I cant understand why to this day the car was locked keys where in my room in the house. And I have no idea how this could of happened. ! please get ahold of me at your earliest convenience because this is absolutely insane sometimes like this could happen in a high end luxury car. Again it's a 2008 mercedes-benz Cls550. VIN# [xxx]. You can reach me if you have any questions at [xxx]. Or my email [xxx]. Thank-you. The car is currently at elite Mercedes Benz getting looked at I will have them send me photos to send to if you would like.

The airbags located in the roof just deployed out of no where when I was on my way home from work only the 2 side curtain airbags.
Have gotten airbag code b9223. Drivers side iginition squib resisted center is high r12/9 message. Took it to. Local. Mb dealer and they want $1800 to fix a airbag problem, which is something that should be defect free regardless of warranty. This is an ongoing issues with mb and it honestly seems that this is done deliberately to generate revenue by selling service for almost $2000 to replace a $50 connector they know is manufactured in a subpar fashion, expecting it to fail. Mb has failed myself and countless others with this one simple problem. There needs to be a recall and they should be forced to fix this problem for their customers. Peoples lives are at steak.
