| Description of the problem | This 2009 kia rondo has had three air bag related problems. 1. The front passenger seat was replaced at $1700 because a sensor caused the air bag light to display. 2. The steering wheel air bag unit was replaced at $900 because again the air bag light was on. 3. The same day that the steering wheel air bag unit was replaced the air bag light again displayed and this time the clock spring was replaced at no charge. These air bag problems raise serious concerns about the safety of kia vehicles. |
