| Description of the problem | I had my vehicle to the dealer multiple times for the passenger air bag showing airbag off when i am sitting in the vehicle with the vehicle in motion. Every time i mentioned the problem i was given an excuse as to why it is happening. The way i sit andthe vehicle has to be shut off and on again to correct the problem are excuses given. When the recall was announced i figured the problem would finally be fixed. I was wrong, the problem has become 100 times worse. I brought my vehicle in and a reprogram was performed. Now everytime i get out of the vehicle the light will illuminate saying airbag off and when i sit in the seat and the driver starts to drive it will stay illuminated for about 20-25 minutes at any speed from local to highway. This is extremely dangerous and needs to be looked into for a permanent fix. |
