| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | Dash warning light has come on and gone off on a regular basis since i purchased the car a little over 2 years ago. It seems to happen more in the winter. If i look online it appears as if there are many complaints about this part and the average cost seems to be 300-400 dollars to fix it. If an airbag is not working because of a faulty part i believe this to be a huge safety risk to anyone in the vehicle. With the recall on the brake lines in my car failing what would i do if i lost my brakes while driving and the air bag was not working? |
