| Description of the problem | The passenger airbag light goes on intermittently. The dealer has attempted to fix the problem 5 times so far. They claim they are unable to duplicate the problem and there are no codes stored in the computer. Therefore, the vehicle is fine. The vehicle is not safe for my wife to be a passenger. They have offered to look at it again after we had the district attorney's office get involved, but we are 45 miles away from the dealer. The last time they looked at it they said it was fine. We still have an unsafe vehicle. |
