| Description of the problem | My wife was driving from work while getting on to the freeway the check engine light came on. Two minutes later the airbag light came on also. Took to dealership next day and was told that both front impact sensors and connectors needed to be replaced. Vehicle is a 2005 with 43000 miles which is out of warranty so we will have to pay for repair. Parts were ordered but are on national backorder so they have no idea when they will come in. |
