Service air bag popped up on display. No damage had been done and it showed up one day but then it would go off after I started driving through the neighborhood at low speeds. Next time I turned it on it wasn't on the dash at all. It came back the next day and then it has not turned off at all while the car is on. Was not sure if there were any recalls on it but none were found. In the past both of my subarus has this same service sign pop up and both were recalled.
