| Description of the problem | Owned car for a year now and on he 25th of august i returned to my vehicle and started it up still in park position all lights illuminated and all except the airbag light on the dash went off. I turned the car off waited a minute and tried to turn it on again and the light still stayed on it has been on ever since. The next morning i called the dealership and my main concern was that the airbags were still working but the person working told me the airbags would not deploy in the event of an accident . I am very worried this is not the only issue i have with this vehicle and i am a single mother with 2 young children anything can happen i do not feel safe in this vehicle. |
