Air Bag Not Deploy problems of the 2005 Kia Motor Sportage

My airbag light went on July 16 2016. I took the car to sussman kia in jenkintown PA. To check light. I was told it is a faulty seat belt . The air bag may not deploy properly. I was told to replace the seat bely assembly $715. 25. The work order invoice #52875--20 July 2016. Should this not be a recall item for safety by Kia Motors?.

This complaint is about the 2005 kia . First the airbag light has come on and has been on for the last three to five years, the auto mechanic that I use at first said that it was just the light indicator and was not problematic except that the light was on but now is saying that since the light is on the airbag may not deploy , and that of course is a big problem. Secondly, when filling the gas tank and when completed the car stalls several times before starting, problem does not occur again until the next refill. Third reoccurring problem is that one of the rear brake lights short out on a reoccurring basis.

2005 kia Sportage t-bone crash and the side seat and curtain airbags failed to deploy causing severe head concussion and neck back injuries. Product liability/defective kia srs system.

2005 kia ex care accident mother hit by drunk driver on driver side door causing head injury concussion. Side airbag and curtain did not deploy. This can cause long term effects and she is currently unable to work.

I was involved in 2 low impact crashes with this kia Sportage 2005 model. One was a rear end collision at 20 mph and the other I was hit from the side in a parking lot. Both times the other driver drove away without damage. I suffered 3500 dollars worth of damage from the first incident and 7500 from the second. The vehicle was not drivable both times. Airbags never deployed. I am very concerned as are other individuals who witnessed the incidents that if the speed had been any greater the personal injury would have been great. I have never had a vehicle sustain so much damage from what should have been fender benders.
