Description of the problem	At about 100,000 miles, the "airbag is off" light stayed on until the car was restarted. This is city driving with a passenger of 150 lbs. Took the kia to the dealership with the light on and they verified the ocs sensor mat malfunction. The ocs sensor mat was replaced march 16, 2017. About a week later, after starting the car and with someone in the passenger seat, the airbag light came on, did its check, but then came on again while driving. This has happened various times. The dealership had the kia for about a week and could not duplicate the problem. Several months later, customer service then told us to take the car to another dealership. That next dealership stated that the airbag will work whether the light is on or off. Nobody from kia has confirmed that statement.
