Failure Date: 01/09/2018

Takata recall, I took my 06 SAAB 93 aero into bellevue washington Cadillac dealership to get my air bag recall fixed, after I hot the recalled airbag replaced they reset my ecm and now my airbag light is on intermittently and drains my battery dead over night! I have called bellevue Cadillac and they refuse to do anything about the damage they did to my car by replacing the recalled airbag with another bad airbag! they listed in their computers that they fixed my car and never did so now I am stuck with another bad faulty airbag and now a battery drain issue from it. My car has been literally undriveable since the day they replaced the recalled airbag. The car also has a failed gas gauge due to electrical issues from the factory which was never recalled, the fuel sending units are bad and never worked properly since the car was purchased which alot if people with the same Saabs have experienced all over the world!.
