Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: This bmw deployed the passenger side air bag, driving down the highway at 70mph. at the same time both front tires went flat. i do not know at this time if the tires were punctured by an object or not. my wife was driving the car and said that she was cruising at 70mph,(8:30am with good visability) when the airbag deployed she pulled over and noticed that she had two flat tires on the front. there was tire failure with this incident, however i only know that the brand tire is dunlop. the car is at the dealership at this time. this so far, is a real mystery to us!!!!!!!*ak
