The airbag light keep coming on ill get it checked and a day later it pops back on.
Airbag light is popping on while driving.
Ever since I bought the car from the dealership, the air bag light turns off and on while driving, minutes apart from each other. Never had my airbags deployed fortunately.
Head rest has separated while not driving. Since the time it separated the airbag light in my car will not go off. I have not been able to reset it on my own and seems that it was not part of a recall that was an airbag issue with the Dodge Avenger identified in 2016. My car has not been in an accident, in good condition, but I have an airbag light on constantly and my headrest is "popped". This is not safe to have happening in ordinary driving conditions. This part should be recalled by Dodge. There are many complaints about this all over the internet for 2014 Avengers. People could get hurt. I have not had the part repaired by Dodge, but have been quoted upwards of $500 to fix a headrest! the headrest is what is setting my airbag light off and not knowing if my passenger will be protected is not comforting. Dodge needs to fix this issue. It was an issue for 2010-2013 models and that is no different for the 2014 models either.

Takata recall. While I'm told my airbag is takata I'm now told it is "s61". In any case, today my airbag light came on while driving locally in town and highway; on and off infrequently. I called Dodge and spoke to a "glenn" who gave me case # 32033318 for the airbag. However, he said the "airbag light" is a separate issue, case # 32033352. He called a local dealer "fields Dodge in sanford, FL" after telling me Dodge will set up a diagnosis at no charge, and put me on line with "tom" at "fields Dodge. " he said there would be a $89. 95 diagnostic charge plus whatever they find. I told him what "glenn" told me and he told me "glenn" was only a call center employee and was mistaken. I told "tom" I would call Dodge back. I called and spoke to a "quarneka" this time who reviewed the notes and could not find "glenn" telling me no charge for the diagnosis to me. I asked "glenn", "quarneka" and "tom" what the risk is of driving with the light on and none had an answer. My question to all, unanswered, is that "isn't it strange my 2014 Dodge Avenger has a known airbag issue and all of a sudden the airbag light comes on for the first time and there is no relation? what a Dodge and dealer ripoff. We just made a 4,000 road trip from florida to new england and back with no issues.
The airbag light kept flashing on and off and eventually has stayed on. There's a connector with two wires that have separated due to constant in and out of the vehicle as used for. There are no current active airbags in the driver or passenger side seats due to this reason. Labor and part costs are more than income can handle; this is a safety issue that needs fixed.

It is the airbags but I'm not sure if it's considered the takata recall. But I've received two to three different letters about the recall and I've gone to the dealership numerous times. Everytime they say they don't have the parts to fix and now the airbag light keeps going on and off. I called to schedule an appointment for one of the two recalls and not they are saying there is no record of a recall for my car.
