The warning light for the air bags comes on when I start the vehicle and stays on while driving. About a week a go it would come on and then turn off in a minute or so but now the warning light stays on. I am wondering if there have been any recalls for these air bags, if the vehicle is safe, and what I should do. The vehicle has 49,067 miles.

Faulty clock spring. Same symptoms as recall #04v480000 for chrysler mini-vans mfd. Through 08-31-2000. Although mine is a 2001 model, it was mfd. Soon there after nov.. 2000. Why no recall for the '01? Again same symptoms: air bag light on nearly all the time, horn doesn't work, steering wheel radio controls do not work. A faulty clock spring I'm told. Vehicle exhibits these symptoms across all driving conditions.

The air bag light stays on after I start the car. Vehicle has approximately 95,000 miles. The technician scan shows fault code for "driver squib #1 circuit open" and he is telling me it is a clockspring fault. There was a recall for the clockspring in 2004, however when I called the dealer he said that my VIN is not included. How did chrysler decide that my vehicle should not be included in the recall?
