She took a picture of the dashboard the light went off maybe about 30 minutes while driving and we noticed the light of the airbag came on seven times more while we were driving on our way home.

We bought a 2016 dodge caravan and had a "remote" start installed through the dealership. The van would shut off when the remote start was used, sometimes. When it shut off in neutral, before I could even make it into the van, the electrical acted like it was disconnected from the battery, (the clock would be flashing, radio stations un-programmed, airbag light on.) the dealership had our van for 2 weeks (no rental), and they never could duplicate or fix the problem. We picked up our van and did not receive paperwork. @three months later, the van died again. But this time while in drive-at a complete stop, while at a drive thru bank atm. When it shut off, the electrical acted like it was disconnected from the battery, (the clock would be flashing, radio stations un-programmed, airbag light on-same as before) I took the van to the dealership. They estimated it would take 3 days to repair and gave me a rental. In less than one day they did a computer "update." on my way home from picking up the "repaired" van, it shut off again, this time in drive-at a complete stop, in a fast food drive thru. I took it back on the same day, and was given another rental. This was in october. (paperwork states: oct 11 and oct 13.) friday oct 13 I received a call from the dealership to bring back the rental. When I asked if my van was fixed I was told, 'no, but the dealership isn't going to pay for the car rental anymore.' the dealership opened a star case from corporate and were told to close the case, even though nothing was fixed. I returned the rental and picked up my van. Oct 18, my van shut off again, while at a complete stop in reverse. I am waiting to hear back from the dealership, to see if they can fix this problem-again.
