I bought the vehicle for my son. On September 13, the power steering failed on a turn on a city street, and he was unable to control the vehicle and hit a parked car on the opposite side of the street. The insurance company paid for a portion of our vehicle expense, but not the entire note which included taxes, license, fees, extended warranty and interest.

Truck slid into a ditch. While driving out in 4-wheel drive, all four side airbags deployed. The truck was not in danger of rolling over. I was driving only 1-3 mph, and the truck was leaning, but not anywhere near tipping. After airbag deployment, I finished getting out of the ditch and returned home while dealing with limited visibility (1-1/2 miles).

Three service calls to fix warning light check air bag. One to replace passenger side above door air bag two to fix the airbag connecter on two driver side air bags. This started in October 2015 and last one was May 2016. Is this a issue with this vehicle? why so many airbag problems in a short period of time.
