| Air Bag problems |
1. Passenger airbag fails to activate randomly. Passenger airbag light shows "off" with a passenger in the seat. Sometimes it works but often stays off for a whole day. 2. Transmission shifts gears by itself. Drive to neutral, reverse to park. A software update changed the behavior but did not eliminate the fault. Now goes from drive to park. One time the vehicle shut off by itself after shifting from drive to park. It has been to the dealer 3 times for these problems, now scheduled for a fourth time. They keep saying they can't find the fault.
