AIR BAGS
AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON. ALREADY HAD HARNESSES REPLACED. PASSENGER AIRBAG WAS REPLACED BY RECALL. I WAS TOLD IF THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT, MAKING THIS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE LIGHT IS ON REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION OR STATIONARY. SOMETIMES THE AIRBAG LIGHT GOES OFF BUT IT ALWAYS COMES BACK ON. IT'S BEEN HAPPENING OFF AND ON FOR THE PAST YEAR OR MORE. I WILL USE TODAY'S DATE AS THE DATE IT OCCURRED SINCE THE LIGHT WAS ON WHEN I DROVE THE VEHICLE THIS MORNING.
