2009: “I was on my way home from dropping off a friend and just before I turned into my street I hit a pot hole and I've hit this pot hole many times as it is before my street. But this time the side airbags deployed, onstar contacted me immediately to see if I needed assistance I declined, I took the vehicle to the dealer the next day and reported it to GM as well.”
