I'm driving about 65 on the interstate today and see some road debris (tire pieces) and I can't swerve in time to get out of the way and as I run it over my drivers airbag and knee airbag deploys, car fills with smokes, engine shuts off and I have to maneuver blindly on the shoulder. No visible damage to the car, bumper is perfect. WTF?! I got the car towed to BMW and will see what they say but has this happened to someone before? Think I can get BMW to cover my deductible? This doesn't seem like a proper sensor calibration.
Thank for any input.
