Airbag warning light by model year
What owners say
The airbag light on instrument cluster came on and stays on - this apparently disables airbags so they will not go off in the event of a crash.
Air bag light keeps turning on while vehicle is in motion.
Takata recall, the air bag light on the dashboard inexplicably turned on and keeps doing so intermittently. It will stay on, then turn off and repeat, with a beeping sound.
Takata recall sometimes my vehicle will not star,t basically every week. I cannot push the pedal down nothing lights up the windshield wipers will not stop going off airbag light, engine, and tire pressure sensor all come on. If car does start the windshield wipers will continue as well as lights then gas gunge will go to zero, cruise control shuts off and blinkers will not work, all happens simultaneously while driving making it very dangerous. I have found many people with this issue yet no clear fix. It is very dangerous and out right ridiculous there is no recall for this safety issue. These issues happen while the vehicle is in driveway and has happened on highway. I do not feel safe having my children in this car.

I was at the drive in movie and had the truck running for part of the movie. I shut the truck off and just listened to the rest of the movie via my radio and had the lights off. When the movie was over I I could not crank my truck. You could see the lights on in the inside but my truck dash said my key was not in vehicle of which it was. Then it said vehicle not in park of which it was. My uconnect screen kept trying to load and would just keep going out. I had 3 people try to jump it just in case the battery was dead even though I knew it wasn't including the tow service for my insurance. None of this worked. I had to get the vehicle towed home now I can not lock my vehicle cause it has no power. My dash says my key is not in the vehicle of which it was and that the vehicle is not in park of which it was. Now on my dash it says the following lights are on: etl electronic throttle light, air bag warning light, and mil malfunction indicator light. I saw a lot of complaints about this on google and youtube when I search this issue this has got to be fixed caused I am a doge fan but I can not keep a vehicle that I am paying on and it doesn't work. Help
Airbag light appears to turn on and alarm when making turns. Going to dealer tomorrow
Our air bag light has been on for the last 4 months. When we took it to the service department they stated nothing was wrong with the air bags. When the light came back on we took it again to the service department where they said there was a problem with our harness. We have also taken our car in for the AC not working and they have changed the module 3 times already and the problem is still there.
