AIR BAGS:SIDE/WINDOW
I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 55MPH IN A 2004 MERCURY MOUNTAINEER AND SUDDENLY BOTH SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG DEPLOYED. THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT, NO IMPACT, NO POTHOLES, NO VEERING OR RUNNING OFF THE ROAD; JUST DRIVING AND IT HAPPENED. SCARED ME HALF TO DEATH. I WAS ABLE TO COMPOSE MYSELF WELL ENOUGH TO NOT WRECK. FURTHERMORE, THERE WAS NO WARNING FROM THE DASH FOR THE AIRBAG TO INFORM ME OF ANY MALFUNCTIONS OR PROBLEM WITH THE AIRBAG SENSOR OR MODULE. *TR
