What owners wrote
The left curtain and driver seat airbags were spontaneously deployed while driving. The driver seatbelt pre-tensioner was engaged and locked. There was no collision or abrupt motion. My wife sustained minor abrasions to her left arm and swerved to the right shoulder of the road. The car would not shift into drive and was towed. The cause is unknown and without warning.
Passenger airbag randomly turns off, while someone is sitting in it. I've taken this to the dealer 4 times now and still have the issues.
