Description of the problem	The airbag light has came on. Kia marked it as bad and i had a second diagnostic done at a shop i have been going to for over 6 years. It came back that there is a manufacture issue. Something i have no control of messing up. I have never been in a car accident so that has nothing to do with it. It's been on for 1 month now. My warranty expired and now kia won't fix it. They warned me that if in a car accident my airbags will not deploy. Apparently there are many people online complaining about this issue. I have children i commute with everyday and i think kia should have a recall on this to avoid lawsuit in the future. What happened to the customer is right and providing excellent service to have customers come back? I regret buying a kia.
