Description of the problem	I have a 2004 vw touareg.... It is a well know problem thought all vw service shops as it was sent out in a tsr? I have owned my vw for 2 yrs 8 months, and have already acquired 78000 miles, i drive everywhere... Leaving me out of warranty due to mileage..... I have experienced the airbag issue that you have already reported to vw... The driver seat back and forth motion runs over the airbag wire harness causing it to split the wires causing a complete airbag fault... It cost me 425. 00 to have this fixed.... 12. 00 parts the rest labor.... Even the vw repair person i dealt with admitted this is a know issue but no recall has been issued..... Why? Is it not safe to assume that your vehicle was equipped with airbags to save your life? Is it not absurd to have your entire system not function due to a 12. 00 part that was improperly positioned in the first place? Please for all touareg owners issue a recall.... Everyone knows its out there affecting all 2004 touaregs.... Please don't allow anyone to be injured and killed ... Or wait until it costs them a week or two of pay to have it fixed.... This event has really upset me and if it can save just 1 life.... Isn't it worth it?. *jb
