Narrative

I was driving on the freeway and the all the airbags in my vehicle deployed, sides, front and under the steering wheel. I did not have an accident or hit anything in the road. The airbags blocked my view of the road, and the cabin filled with smoke. I was traveling at a freeway speed. I do not know if the issue has been reproduced. I have contacted my insurance company, and they are handling the claim. There was no prior indication of an issue and no dashboard lights indicated that there was an issue with any of the components of my car. There are no added components or modifications to my vehicle. I purchased the car new.
