1 Front Air Bag Sensor Control problem

Failure Date: 01/06/2013

The air bag dash light came on and stayed on. I took it to the Suzuki dealership. They told me there was a recall on the passenger seat sensor. They reset the light to shut it off and charged me $99. 95 labor to do so. I asked why this was not covered under warranty or the recall. They told me it only had a 3 year 36,000 mile warranty. They also reset and fixed the light without my authorization to do so since I thought this would be a warrantied repair.

2 Front Air Bag Sensor Control problem

Failure Date: 06/03/2012

This issue started way before today, but the air bag sensor light came on probably in the fall of 2011 along with the passenger seat belt light. We moved to a small town and before getting two new tires we went to the service station only to find out it was closed but I need to get my inspection reinstated so I can go to class and work and if Suzuki knew about all these issues with the air bag sensor one would hope that it would warrant a recall. I love my Sx4 but ever since I got it has had many issues with it, more so than my husbands car which is a 1999 Ford mustang.

3 Front Air Bag Sensor Control problem

Failure Date: 01/06/2012

I went to the dealer for the airbag service light on! they checked it and turn that the airbag sensor from the passengers seat is dead and warranty will not cover it!!??? I'm very dissapointed with this, Suzuki warranty will not response for their vehicle security failures?? why?? they said that if I have an accident airbags will not come off and if I want to have it replace it will cost 2,000 dollars!!.

4 Front Air Bag Sensor Control problem

Failure Date: 11/02/2011

This vehicle air bag sensor had a problem early on. . Brought to dealership they reset. . . Air bag ligt came back on, wanted me to pay to reset it. . . So I never did. . . But as I read other people having the same issue with a sensor that shuts off the airbag. . . And leaves it off with no way to turn it back on. . . And a defective sensor in the seat and they now want 1,400 to replace it. . . When it has never functioned. . .
