I'm having a problem with my airbag light staying on. My vehicle has not been in a major accident that caused the airbag to deploy. I called kia to repair it because I'm still under warranty but they told me I would be responsible for getting the problem repaired. I thought if it had anything to do with airbags that would be the responsibility of the the company.

I was driving at approximately 15-20 MPH in a back-street when I drove over a steady bump, which caused the passenger side airbag to deploy. The bump in nature I would say was not a rough bump. I immediately took the car back to dealer at shaumburg kia address: 1100 e golf rd, schaumburg, il 60173 phone:(847) 908-0502
I was t boned by a lady in a dodge mini van who ran a stop sign approx 30 MPH there was damage from the front of my car to the rear with the passanger door being ripped off during the impact. The side airbags never deployed. This is very concerning to me and needs to be addressed
