Took my car on to check why seat belt light was on after bag replaced. Told there is a sensor under passenger seat that reflects weight in seat that is not working that is used in case accident airbag pressure would be deployed. Light will not turn off on dash and told me out of warranty is not on repair list… I have 2007 fusion that I can’t sell because of safety light. Who is responsible for that. Service at dealer said sorry can’t help me.. it would be 400.00??? R u kidding .
