3 Warning Light On problem of the 2008 Lexus IS

Airbag warning light came on. Dealer says faulty instrument panel wire harness which renders my airbags inoperable. Cost to repair Is $3,600 with Lexus of carlsbad. $2,000 for the part alone and $1,600 for labor. This seems like a safety related manufacturing defect that Lexus will not take responsibility for.

4 Warning Light On problem of the 2010 Lexus IS

Failure Date: 02/01/2016

Takata recall - immediately after purchasing this used car, I noticed the red light, but was not aware at the time that it was warning light. So my airbag red light remains on all the time once the car Is started. I later was informed that this should not be happening and I am now fearful and see this as an airbag defect that could lead to serious concern of questionable safety. I think it Is unfair that Lexus now wants to charge me $280 for a diagnostic for the root of this problem, when in fact they know that these takata airbags are not safe and millions of cars have already been recalled.
