| Description of the problem | Greeting.... On two previous occasions when the vehicle was under warranty it was taken in for service due to the warning indicator/light relative to driver's seat belt/air bag. On both occasions the matter was corrected. However today 12 oct. 2014 the vehicle began experiencing the same problem. The first time the tech reported that persons riding behind the driver did/maybe caused the problem because the wiring harness is exposed. The second incident in which the vehicle was taken in i was informed the problem should not occur in the future. That last repair was some 10-15 months ago. However today when the problem light came on there were no one seated behind the driver. It appears there is/was a flaw in the design causing a potential danger to occupants of this vehicle. Each time the vehicle was serviced at fairway lincoln savannah ga. Also please note the dates and mileages are approximately. |
