Description of the problem	I actually own 2 kias same year and model. Air bag light would come on and off when someone would sit in passenger seat. Then it started staying on all the time on so it was still under warranty so they replaced the sensor. Now my husbands kia is doing the same exact thing and it is out of warranty so they refuse to fix it without charging me, so i have to ride with him at my own risk because i have no air bag protection on my side.
