The air bag sensor light stays on. Consumer is concerned that the air bag will not deploy upon impact.
1997 Dodge Grand Caravan. Vehicle was manufactured in 1996. The abs light came on and will not go off. Vehicle was taken to the dealership, who fixed the master cylinder because the light to airbags stayed on. The instrumental panel lights blinked off and on occasionally. When seeing the lights on the dashboard the consumer could look at this as a warning, because I could not see how fast she was going or how much gas there was in the gas tank. This has been a problem for about a year. There were no accidents. I the consumer took vehicle to dealership in 2003, and they changed the clock spring. Also, the dealer said there was nothing else they could do. First, the abs light would come on and go off, now all the lights came on, but nothing was working on dashboard.
While traveling approximately 15 mph, vehicle "bottomed-out" while traveling up a driveway. When this occurred, both frontal air bags in vehicle deployed unexpectedly. Dealership has replaced both frontal air bags, and air bag sensors. Please provide any additional information / documentation.
Airbags sensor light stays illuminated while driving. Dealer has been notified.
