Description of the problem | While driving, the side impact airbag deployed for no reason. The vehicle was 6 months old at the time and still under warranty. I contacted the dealer and they have refused to replace the airbag because of the possibility that something may have hit the underside of the vehicle causing the side impact airbag to deploy. *jb |
