2008 Pontiac G6 air bags problems

“The contact's daughter owns a 2008 Pontiac G6. The contact stated that while her daughter was driving at an undisclosed speed, the driver's side air bag deployed without warning. There was no impact to the vehicle that could have caused the air bag to deploy. The contact's daughter did not sustain any injury, and no medical attention was received. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 190,000. The VIN was unavailable.”

“I HAVE NOT DRIVEN MY CAR FOR A DAY AND I AM INSIDE MY HOME AND I COME OUTSIDE AND MY CAR IS SMOKING AND MY CAR IS SMOKING INSIDE BECAUSE THE AIR BAG HAS BLOWED UP AND IT'S ON FIRE AND HOW COULD A AIR BAG BLOW UP WHEN IT WAS PARKED FOR A DAY ,”
