 Description of the problemWhen the power seat was moved, it disengaged the air bag system and the light on the dashboard came on alerting me that the air bag system was disengaged.. Thus, if i had an accident during this period, the air bags would not have engaged. I subsequently took my car to the dealership for a warranty repair. They reengaged the system and sent me on my way. Again on 11/4/09 i had to have another warranty repair and again on 1/4/10 and 2/23/11. Each time i took the car to the dealership for repair and asked if it could be permanently fixed. Each time they said they had to remove the seats and reconnect the wires for the system to reengage. Each one was covered by the warranty. However on 8/23/12 they said it wasn't under warranty anymore and they would charge me to fix it. They were too expensive and i took it elsewhere to get it fixed. This occurred again on 1/30/13 and i had to pay to get it fixed. I have had to permanently keep the front seats in the same position since then so i wouldn't disengage the system. Each time i go for routine maintenance i have a sheet of paper on the steering wheel indicating not to move the seats for fear of disengagement. I don't understand why the manufacturer can't permanently fix this issue at their cost. This seems to be a safety issue to me. Thank you.
