Air Bag On-off Switch Problems of Jeep Cherokee

On December 6, 2019, during a return trip from louisiana to texas, the airbag warning light on the dashboard turned on and off two times over a seven hour period while driving on a highway. On December 19, 2019, the airbag warning light turned on as I was leaving the house. It stayed on for approximately 2 minutes and then went back off. This was while while driving on a city street. I have seen a total of three events where the airbag warning light has switched on and then off while driving.
