| Description of the problem | There is a current recall for the passenger air bag sensor for 2015-2018 subaru foresters but somehow ours is not included in that. However, we are receiving an warning light stating that out passenger air bag sensor is failing. We took our subaru to get service and we were told ours was not affected and would not be repaired. It is going to cost us $1000 to repair the sensor. What can we do to remedy this as a sensor malfunction should not be the responsibility of the owner. |
