| Description of the problem | I have taken my 2007 volkswagen gti in 3 times for airbag related issues. After 3 repair attempts and replacing the entire airbag system, the airbag light still comes on at random occasions. When the light is illuminated, all airbag systems are disabled and this is a serious safety issue. I am currently filing for arbitration with the bbb because my car is a lemon. |
