| Description of the problem | Srs airbag light came on while driving with a passenger in the front passenger seat. At the same time, the passenger airbag turned off. This happened twice, 4 days apart. Took car to the dealer and they told me the sensor must have gotten wet. I don't believe the sensor was ever wet. Happen again twice in the next 2 weeks while driving. I had also previously had the passenger seatbelt like come on when there was no passenger in the seat while driving. Went back to the dealer and they replace the passenger seat due to a bad sensor. |
