What owners wrote
Front end damage to both sides of car, air bags did not deploy, cruise control was on, kept increasing speed, sometimes would not release when brake was touched, other times it would shut off by itself, lost control of car, front end went into a ditch & car was flipped, air bags are still intact at this time.
While driving the air bag light illuminated. The dealer later determined that the irs (inflatable restraint sensor) and sir coil failed. *nlm
