2 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 10/07/2020

The airbag light came on for the first time Wednesday, October 7, 2020. I started my car after being parked at work for 9 hours. No one was parked next to me, no damage on my car either. I am the original owner of the vehicle. At some point in the last several years (4 or less) I took my vehicle to sunset Ford in sunset hills, mo for a recall of some sort. The only other problem I've had with my car is the front passenger seat shakes. The bolts keeping the seat to the frame of the car are tight. So I'm not really sure of the iissue.
