Airbag light came on about a week ago for about 10 minutes while at a drive-thru window and went off. Driving down a 45 mph road the light came back on and went off just as quickly. Called the dealer the next day and made an appointment. Light continued to go on and off while driving around town and even came on when I put the car in park. Took it to dealer and they couldn't "duplicate" the problem so they have no idea what is causing the light to go on and off. Has been doing it everyday since I left the dealer. I am waiting on a loaner from them so they can keep the car for longer than a couple of hours. Have to say I don't feel real safe driving my car with the airbag light going on and off while I am driving.

It was beautiful, dry sunny day when driving down a city street in a construction zone(half paved road half dirt road), all of a sudden the airbag light illuminated on the dash. It stayed on until 5 days later, the light flickered three times and stayed illuminated. A few time sitting still, car in the park position, car running the airbag light would be off but as soon as you put it into gear the airbag light on the dash would illuminate. Ten days later the light went off for 30 minutes(driving a city street in the rain with wind shield wipers were on) but then it came back on. When the mechanic ran a diagnostic check on it, no error message came up. He tried to reset the airbags but was unsuccessful. The light is still on. It is very unsettling not knowing if there is really a problem with the airbags or if it is a malfunction of the airbag system in some way.
