“My drivers side airbag deployed without any warning on saturday, october 19,2019. I was not involved in any accident or collision. The vehicle was already in the park position and the motor shutoff. I was pulling into my driveway with my son and beforei could remove my keys from the ignition and exit my truck, the airbag deployed, smacking me directly in my face. Im sure this was due to a malfunction of some kind because ive been owning this vehicle since 1996 and this has never happened. …”
