Honda is investigating a possible airbag defect in its 2008 Honda Accords after nearly a dozen drivers have complained that their side airbags have deployed for no reason.

A 26 year-old Georgia man was driving on Interstate 85 driving at least 60-65 mph when he says his side airbags exploded, blocking his entire left-side view and causing him to lose his hearing for the day. He luckily was able to exit the freeway and pull over safely. However, his vehicle shows no signs of side impact.

At this time, Honda does not plan on issuing a recall. The automaker states they are investigating the Georgia man’s car, but no formal investigation is underway. Honda and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has not found a common connection between the dozen complaints involving the airbags.
