This past may, my air bag sensor light kept coming on and staying on. I brought the car to my local jeep dealer. They diagnosed a faulty impact sensor, left side and replaced it at a cost to me of $297.10. Today, six months exactly after that visit, the air bag light came on and stayed on. I am bringing it in to be looked at tomorrow.
