Description of the problem	Subject the passenger side airbag explode or inflated inside: on august 30th i picked up my car from merchedisbenz dealer after serviced. I started the car and i am about to leave driving 5mph and i heared a big loud pop i didn't even leave the premises yet. The technicians even heard it. I inform the technician right away and took it for test drive and he said everything is fine. I took it home, but i couldn't sleep with out finding what that noise is? I took it back to be checked and have been told the passenger side airbag inflated inside needs to be changed. The safety issue is here if i didn't take it back there is no way to know the airbag is not functioning or blowup inside until accident happens. Therefore, it's a safety issue. Needs to be corrected, how the driver will find out? It doesn't show anything any warning ⚠️ on the screen. It's definetly a safety issue.
