Description of the problem	Air bag sensor light randomly comes on and off while driving and first staring up. No accidents to cause this. Car has just over 65k. After seeing many complaints online about this same issue of the sensors randomly coming on after 60k miles or so, seems this issue needs to be addressed.

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.
