I have 2005 Suzuki Forenza and the airbag panel light came on and will not go off. This is the second time it has happened. The first time it was still under warranty when I took it to a dealership to be repaired. The light is back on and has not gone out. It is no longer under warranty. Also since it has been on the second time my lighter keeps blowing a fuse. I can't afford to pay for the repairs.

I was in an accident in which my car rear ended another vehicle that was broken down at night and I did not see. The car made impact on the front driver's side and according to the collision center, sustained 70% worth of damage. I was traveling approximately 35 mph when the accident occurred. The impact was enough so that the steering wheel was bent. I sustained head, face, neck, and knee injuries. No airbag deployed at any time.
We have a 2008 Suzuki Forenza. The passenger air bag will not activate with someone of an appropriate weight sitting in the seat when the car is started. If the car is running when someone sits down sometimes it will go off. The car has been to the dealer 4- 5 times and they say there is nothing wrong. This is a major safety risk for the front seat passenger. Your help will be greatly appreciated.
I was driving my car through a gravel street, I hit a man hole and the seal to my airbags broke, the air bags did not come out or deploy fully. I was not involved in an accident nor was anyone hurt or injured or any properly damage done, the front or rear side of my car was not hit nor damaged, this lead me to believe that there must be some sort of defect on the car, I had the dealership look at it and they told me there was no defect, but why didn't my airbags fully deploy or inflate? had I not been wearing my seatbelt, I could have been seriously injured. I did some research online and I found that there was other owners of the same make and model with almost the same issues, dealing with the front and passenger air bags.
The srs airbag system inoperative light stays on. This vehicle has been to shop at least 5 times during warranty period and has failed to be fixed.
