 On may 24, 2012- i was traveling out our mile long gravel driveway. half way down the driveway the side curtain airbags on both sides deployed. there was no crash- they just came out. i contacted gm. they finally sent out a 3rd party investigator to investigate the vehicle. they determined that the vehicle had a roll-over event. the vehicle did not roll-over. gm told me that it was an insurance issue. insurance company says it is a mechanical issue and was gm's problem to fix. at this time the vehicle still sits with both side airbags out and the front driver and passenger seatbelts are locked in place. vehicle is not drivable. *tr

 Tl-the contact owns a 2008 chevrolet trailblazer. the contact stated that while attempting to add seat belt extensions to the rear passenger side seat belt she noticed there was no buckle to snap the seat belt into. the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where they could not locate the seal belt buckle. the vehicle was in the process of having a new buckle installed. the failure mileage was unknown and the current mileage was 6,000. sm.

 This complaint is in conjunction with my false and delayed side curtain airbag deployment, report date of march 25, 2009. i just discovered that both front seat belt systems must be replaced. the drivers side seat belt is limp. the passenger side seat belt is so tight it not only broke top of the belt housing on top of the seat (pieces), the belt is so tight it is deforming the seat. i cant imagine what this would have done to a passenger, had i have had one in that seat. *tr
