Srs light comes on when passenger raises up from seat back. Dealer does not repair but just turns light off, which will come back on shortly. Didn't seem to be much of a problem until service advisor said air bags do not work properly when light is on. If that is the case, it seems it should be fixed instead of covered up.
Air bag light came on intermittently. Dealer serviced the vehicle. Then, consumer rear ended a vehicle at 50 mph. A recall letter was later received by the consumer on the air bag module. Nhtsa recall 02v080000.
Problems with air bag frontal sensor / control module. Dealer replaced opds unit and driver's seat belt.
Srs system failure due to faulty part. (nar) the consumer feels that the failure was due to a faulty part or design not wear or tear. The charges were unreasonably high due to poor design. An entire seat assembly should not have had to be replaced to fix an srs sensor.
The airbag system has failed 3 times in 16 months as indicated by the srs warning light on the instrument panel. The system's availability during a crash is questionable.
While driving at 30 mph srs indicator light came on and stayed on. This may result in air bag failure. Dealership replaced the battery, but the problem still exists.
