| Description of the problem | I was driving down the interstate when my airbag warning light started flashing, and the "airbag off" indicator lit up for the passenger side airbag. After doing some research i discovered that this problem was possibly related to the ocs sensor malfunctioning, and that this was a known issue with a recall (08v521000). I called the recall center and was told that my car was not covered under this recall, and that i should take my vehicle to the dealer. I took my car to the dealer on 10-2-13 for them to run a diagnostic. Was informed that in fact, the ocs had gone bad; but again told that it was not covered under the recall, and would cost $2819 to fix. I have since escalated my case to the regional level, given that my car has less than 50k miles, was purchased brand new, and a sensor should last well beyond that! I was told by the regional office to submit a complaint, and that they will further research my situation. |
