Default LR4 side airbags deployed while off-roading

https://www.dropbox.com/s/8q85zlgasv...irbag.mp4?dl=0

hi all need your opinion on this video. Me and a couple of friend went off roading in the desert. And after going over a switch back all my side airbags deployed. Land Rover sending my black box to engeland to see if it's a sensor fault witch I hope it is because other wise I'm in for some big $$$$$$$

your opinion please.

Post that in the LR4 section. I would make a fuss. Why didn't the 4 in front deploy its bags ?

of course it detected a roll over, but it detected wrong.

Land Rover is a Tread Lightly. Maybe the speed over the switchback tells them otherwise.

Looked like the line he took was a bit more aggressive from what I took away from the video.

Interesting to see what the sensor data had to say. Doesn't the BCM save info when it detects a Airbag event

I'm not sure which unit records, but he says he sent it back and they deemed it a just deployment.

Bottom line is, it didn't roll. I just don't see how they could not take responsibility. If he didn't have video of the incidence that would give LR plausible deniability, but he does.
