Ranger

  • miles
While driving at about 55 mph a deer came out on the highway, consumer hit brakes, slid down highway a little, but didn't hit the deer or anything else. However, both passenger's and driver's airbags deployed. Consumer felt that airbags shouldn't have deployed. If in traffic, it would have caused a very bad chain reaction, resulting in injuries.
