Incident: January 7, 2018 · Filed: February 20, 2018

I WAS COMING DOWN MY DRIVEWAY, WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY .3 MILE, AT ABOUT 10 MPH AROUND A SMALL CURVE WHEN ALL FOUR SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED ON THE VEHICLE. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO CADILLAC AND NOW GM IS STATING THAT I WAS DRIVING IN EXCESS SPEED OF 50 MPH AND THE CAR WAS DRIVING ERRATICALLY. THIS IS TOTALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO DO COMING OUT OF THE DRIVE AROUND THE CORNER WHERE THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM AND IF I WAS DRIVING ON THE MAIN ROAD COULD HAVE POSSIBLY CAUSED ME SERIOUS HARM AND ACCIDENTS TO OTHERS. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS OR PROBLEMS I'VE HAD WITH THE VEHICLE TO GIVE ME ANY SIGN THAT THIS DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAGS WOULD HAPPEN. THIS IS A GM MANUFACTURING PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED BY GM AND CADILLAC. THEY HAVE INFORMED ME THAT I NEED TO CONTACT MY INSURANCE COMPANY WHICH I HAVE DONE AND THEY NOW HAVE INVESTIGATORS LOOKING INTO THIS INCIDENT. THIS COULD HAPPEN TO OTHER VEHICLES AND TAKE LIVES.
