I own a auto repair shop and was driving a customer vehicle. I was driving straight down the street at 20-25 mph when the passenger airbag exploded. It was a very scary experience, I pulled over to the side of the road. After a minute I decided I should pull the car a little more off the road , as I was doing that the drivers side airbag went off.

I had just pulled out of a parking lot onto a street, going straight, at about 20 mph, when the passenger side airbag deployed. About a minute later, the driver side airbag deployed, hitting me. I pulled over. The car had not hit anything prior to deployment. The result is that the windshield is cracked, the interior overhead light dislodged and I was disoriented.

I was sitting in my car in a parking lot with the engine running. The car was in park when the passenger side air bag deployed. Gm will not fix the car and has offered a very low repurchase offer ($1100. 00 less than kbb trade in value).

Passenger's side air bag deployed while vehicle was parked in driveway without any impact.

While parked, I was turning on the car from the passenger side and the passenger side airbag deployed and hit me. Very dangerous, my three year old daughter was behind me and was knocked down. In addition, I could have been driving and had a serious accident. Apparently this was a malfunction (dealer comments). Checked your database and found another incident around the same time a year before, same make,model,year. Isn't this a problem?.
