| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | The airbag system light and seatbelt light illuminated unexpectedly after driving for a short distance. No modifications have ever been made to the vehicle, as i am the original owner. I received a recall notice from the factory regarding the "passenger seats air bag component failure" but no further claims of responsibility. I received an additional warranty for failure in the passenger seat air bag system, but none covering the entire safety system, which i believe to be the case for my vehicle. I project that i will be charged for a safety system failure that is not an any way, shape or form to be my responsibility. Please address this issue. |
