Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS WAS NOT DUE TO AN ACCIDENT OR ANY TYPE OF IMPACT. IT WAS A RANDOM EVENT. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT THE SAAB/VOLVO DEALERSHIP IN CHARLOTTE, NC WHERE IT WAS ORIGINALLY PURCHASED. THEY ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY THIS HAPPENED AND THE DEALERSHIP IS SAYING THEY WILL NOT ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR REPAIR COSTS. THIS IS CLEARLY A MECHANICAL PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON THE ROAD AT 45MPH. WE HAVE PICTURES ON OUR CELL PHONE AVAILABLE.
Complaints are unverified consumer reports submitted to NHTSA. A high complaint count may reflect vehicle popularity, not defect severity. Data sourced from NHTSA public records.
