| 2007 | AIR BAGS | AT APPROXIMATELY 70,000 MILES THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. A COMPUTER DIAGNOSTIC SHOWED THAT THE SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT CUSHION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS THE SENSOR WHICH SENSES WHETHER OR NOT A PERSON IS SITTING IN THE SEAT AND IN THE CASE OF AN ACCIDENT TELLS THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY. THE STATE IN WHICH I LIVE REQUIRES SAFETY INSPECTIONS WHICH THE VEHICLE WILL NOT PASS IF THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON. THE FAILURE OF AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT IS CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE BY MY STATE LAWS AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE MANUFACTURER OF THIS VEHICLE. *TR |
