Description of the problem	The airbag warning light came on my 2013 kia rio lx sometime shortly after the mileage hit 80,000 miles. It would go on and then turn off. It did this for a little while but now it stays on all the time. I called kia to ask if there had been any recalls on the air bags and they told me no. Then i was told that it would be $350-$400 just to check it out. I have seen many reports of this by other kia rio owners on this website. This has become a common problem and there should be a recall for this problem.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
