Description of the problem	I have had my 2011 kia sorento for 2 years now and at about 115k miles after starting the car the air bag indicator light came on and will not go off. After researching, it appears that this is a common problem. I suggest that kia looks into this and issues a recall since this is a obvious problem and i like others carry children as passengers and do not feel safe anymore and am looking into other auto manufacturers.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
