Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was driving my saab 900 convertible and while driving down the road the passanger airbag deployed. i immediatly pulled over and as i was checking to find out what the noise was the driver's side airbag deployed. the airbag broke my windshield and immediatly after they deployed the srs light came on and the warning light indicator came on. i will be taking the car to have it inspected by a certified saab repair shop. the mechanic is guessing at this point that the computer system failed causing the spontaneous deployment. had i have been driving on a busy road or a highway this could have potentially been an accident causing incident. fortunatly for me and others traveling this was not the case.*ak
