I purchased a 1995 gmc safari van at c & o motors in charleston west virginia on 05/23/1998 reg #1gddm19w9sb53344. After driving it home we discovered the air bag light was on so we contacted c & o and they said to bring it back. We did they worked on it and the light was off. We drove it a short time and the light came on again. We contacted c & o and they said to bring it back and we did and this time they replaced the airbag. The light was off for a short time and then came on again. We contacted performance motors in parsons and they looked at it and the light went off for a short time. Now we are considering selling this van and was told that if the air bag light is on we cannot sell it. We have all the paperwork to show where it has been serviced for this problem, we did a car fax on the van to see if it had been wrecked due to the light not going off and it came back negative. We would like some input as to how we should handle this problem? I checked the recalls and this was not one of the recalls. We have invested several hundred dollars to fix this problem and until now felt it was not a problem until we decided to sell it.
