Model Year	2011
File date	01/04/16
Component	AIR BAGS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Airbag light has been on for miles. Kia states it is not under warranty, but that the entire airbag system is deactivated due to this error code. They quoted at the least $1,500 in parts alone, not including labor and they can't guarantee that will fix the problem. I am finding this a common issue in 2011 kia sorento. This should be a mandatory recall. People can't afford to fix this problem. But this is a major safety issue. Nothing caused the airbag light to come on. My car has never been in one accident nor have i ever hit anything with my vehicle.

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.
