| Warning Light On problems |
The srs warning light came on. A diagnostic code indicated that the air bag control module (located in the dash board, behind the radio) was not working. This is not a serviceable part. A new module is $1,400, repeat, yes, $1,400, not installed. I think air bag equipment should have life time warranties and certainly should not be $1,400. The would appear to be putting profits before safety. I am a teacher, not a stock broker. I bought this car three years ago ( the vehicle was17 years old). It was in good shape and well maintained. If the engine threw a rod or the trans went out, my tough luck. But I think safety things such as air bags should have life time warranties.
