| Description of the problem | I was driving on the west virginia turnpike when the airbag light came on. The bag didn't open, but it scared me. There is no shoulder on the turnpike to get over and there is lots of truckers. The airbag light stayed on until i got off the turnpike and pulled over to a rest stop. I turned off the car and my son and i rested for about 30 minutes before starting the car again to drive home. When i turned on the car the light was off. It comes on every once in a while. Not sure why and not sure what is causing it to come on? |
