Pontiac Grand Prix Air Bags Safety Report | Jan 12, 2013
Reported on Jan 12, 2013
| I WAS DRIVING ON RT 110 IN AMESBURY AND THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED OUT OF THE BLUE. IT BURNED MY HAND AND WAS THE SCARIEST THING MAKING ME FEEL UNCONSCIOUS FOR A LITTLE WHILE WHEN I REALIZED THERE WAS SMOKE IN THE VEHICLE I GOT OUT AS FAST AS I COULD NOT KNOWING WHAT HAPPENED. THERE WAS NO REASON FOR THIS TO HAPPEN. THERE WAS NO CRASH WITH OTHER VEHICLES. I HAD THE VEHICLE INSPECTED AND THE ALARM SYSTEM WAS DISCONNECTED TO STOP A LOUD HORN FROM BLOWING AT CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP. THE NEXT DAY ON THE WAY TO WORK IT HAPPENED AGAIN SHATTERING THE WINDOW IN THE FRONT. THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DEPLOYED ON THE HIGHWAY . *TR | |
