Possible side airbags deployed without cause, family believe that one or both side airbags deployed while approaching the intersection and disorientated the driver as well as blocking her view of the intersection causing a fatal accident.
We were leaving my son's apartment when we hit the speed bump at about 5 miles an hour the air bags deployed and busted out our wind shield and filled the car with smoke. My fianc was driving the car and had his thumb hurt. Several of the electrical things in the car do not work now.
