1 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 07/30/2020

The airbag light started coming on when a passenger sat in the passenger seat. The light would go off. When driving, the airbag light began coming on when driving with no passenger and then stayed on. In addition, the seatbelt light would beep even when the passenger belt was plugged in. I took the vehicle into Dodge for service and was informed the seatbelt could not be fixed because the part needed was discontinued. The airbag light was diagnosed as a problem with the wire harnesses. The day after getting my car back from being repaired, the airbag light is back on. It came on once I started the car. It now comes on intermittently while driving, sometimes does not go off until the car is off.

The service airbag light in my vehicle goes on and off several times throughout each month. I have brought it into the dealer & they tried telling me it was because I probably have my purse on the passenger seat. I do not keep my purse on the passenger seat.
