| Description of the problem | Airbag light randomly started coming on and then turning off while driving. Now it stays on for long periods of time. No accidents or reason for this to happen. Mechanic says it will cost a lot to try to figure out what wrong and kia should recall as this is an issue with the car. I am concerned that if there ever is an accident the airbag won't work, and that is extremely dangerous. |
