Air bag illuminates intermittently. This is a clear indicator of a break in the circuit. The fact it comes off and on leads me to believe it is a connection somewhere being jarred. The issue simulates the issues already addressed in another recall. However, the year model falls out of the range by one year as previously cited year models. I feel this needs to be investigated and addressed to extend the recall to other year models of the Challenger make. Vehicle is in motion and the airbag light illuminates intermittently when traveling. This has been an ongoing issue and has been an issue since owning the car. A previous report has gone un-investigated.

I own a 2012 Dodge Challenger. I am the original owner. About 8 months after purchase my passenger side airbag light started turning on intermittently. Usually stopping for long periods of time. Eventually the frequency increased, until the light remained on permanently. I took my vehicle to the local Dodge dealership to address a different recall and have the airbags inspected. I ended up paying $220 for repairs to the passenger side airbag wiring. Not long after repairs the problem started again. It has now increased in frequency and stays on majority of the time. I was told by the technician who performed the repairs that this could prevent the airbag from deploying in an accident. I have found where this issued has been addressed and has a recall campaign number of n07. However, my VIN does not authorize these recall repairs. I would just like to has this repair made and not continue to be charged for repairs on faulty equipment.
Air bag light gradually came on and off. Currently, the light stays consistently on. Began when I was driving at low speeds.

Apparently there is a cut off on vehicles and mine didn't make the list, however it demonstrates same exact problem for which the recall was made.
