Description of the problem	Airbag warning light came on monday (january 11, 2016) morning upon starting the vehicle. It did not turn off. It remains on at all times indicating that there is a problem with the airbags in the vehicle. Turning the vehicle off does not reset he problem as it still persist. The airbag warning light remains on if vehicle is in park or drive or any gear. Also the airbag light remains on at all speeds from standing to 65mph. Airbag warning light remains on at the time of filing this complaint wednesday january 13 2016 approximately 9:00am est i have been in touch with parkside kia of knoxville tn and have a schedule appointment to have this investigated on thursday january 14, 2016. I have had to drive the vehicle since this issue arose and am extremely concerned as there is no way for me to know if in fact the airbags will work if i am in an accident. This is very serious to me as i have 4 children one of whom has a lot of medical needs, a wife and a nurse who are often times in the vehicle with me. I strongly urge an investigation in to this before some one is seriously injured or worse.
