I was driving my 2003 Saab 9-3 SE convertible to the nearby publix supermarket. The car has never been in an accident or hit. I parked it in the lot with the top down and went into the store for approximately 10 minutes. It was a warm dry day in Florida about 85 degrees. I came out and put the key in the ignition and turned it to start the car, and the passenger side airbag exploded for no known reason. I called GM, they took the car to a GM facility and inspected it, and then came back a week later and said the unexplained deployment of the airbag was not a manufacturers defect and they would not repair it. I find that difficult to believe. The airbag should not deploy arbitrarily when the ignition key is turned.

Takata recall I was notified by Saab in March 2016 that I have takata airbags installed and are subject to recall. It is now six (6) months since the notification. I have had no further communication from Saab. I feel that the recall should take place immediately before I get killed from the airbag inflating. Six months should be more than adequate to resolve the problem. I ask that Saab be compelled to immediately make the necessary repairs!

Takata recall I do not have a date for or my Saab air bag recall. This clearly sends a message about GM. "don't buy GM, and from those companies which place people at risk of air bag failure"
