| Description of the problem | I took the vehicle in because the sure bag light was on. Shortly after, i recieved something in the mail from kia about the air bag recaps so i took it in. The dealership told me my vin wasn't covered. They said the passenger side bag is what i am having an issue with so they turned off the air bags and i've been driving with no air bags for a couple of months because they said i had to pay for it. It's $1400 and my warranty had just run it out. |
