Air bags popped out causing damage to my daughters face and burns to her arms and other bodily damages. The car barely hit the wall and the bags went off. We were at home. My daughter was treated twice (admitted at the trauma unit for 3 days). Speech therapy is required for the facial trauma and orthodontist was needed for a broken tooth and wire from her braces jammed in her jaw.

Right side passenger side curtain air bags deployed automatically when front left tire failed. I have read of later model years having issues with unintended side curtain deployment. I have even read of complaints about erratic deployment in 2006 models in NHTSA files. There was no collision, only a chuck hole which prompted the tire failure. I was driving on a highway near athens, Ohio. Hit an unavoidable pothole, the tire blew out immediately, the right side air curtains deployed.
