Description of the problem	Since 2009 the driver side airbag light will stay on after i have started the car. It will stay on for days, whether it is hot summer time or cold winter days. It may stay on for a few days or for months. The last time was from july 19, 2014 to august 25, 2014. This is the first time that i have reviewed the list of vehicle safety complaints. Seeing the other complaints about the airbag light remaining on encourages me to submit my history also. When it has been on, i think i should take it to the dealer but then it goes off before i can take the car in to the dealer. Seeing all the complaints i also think subaru should be responsive to this problem.
