So just bought this crossover, which is more like a short SUV, or a really sturdy and stout station wagon; with 98,000miles 9n it. So there must've been an issue with the air bags because I was cleaning under the front seats and while doing so, k I locked a resistor wrapped in electrical tape off of some wires and even since my service airbag light has been on, not to mention there are wires cut that I need relieve go to the air bags as well.
