Has anyone else had issues with their brakes seeming to lock up and airbag light in dash coming on after r25 recall repair???? Dealer refuses to address these problems without me paying for diagnositics to be run first & I don't have $100+ to pay out of pocket. These issues started the day I drove it home after getting the recall repaired.... .. Help?!?!! I paid for new brakes bc I figured it could be strictly coincidence, but the light & beeping too?!? No way!!!!

Air bag light stays on even though there has never been an accident. I don't think it will deploy correctly. It is truly a safety concern.
This issue started approx 3 weeks ago. The head lights will not stay on they flicker off and on as if I was flashing my lights to alert another driver, when they are actually doing this on its on. This is not only a safety issue, but I'm afraid I will get pulled over by law officials. And my job requires me to have to be at work at night. This is very disturbing when this happens and they stay off at times for 30 to 40 seconds at a time and I'm having to hold the bright light arm to have lights. The passenger airbag light comes on from time to time saying it is not on, and there are brake issues as well.
