The airbag light came on by itself.

TRIM ELECTRICAL - Upon dealer service inspection, technician found the air bag light on. DTCS code B0020-13 left side airbag deployment control circuit open due to the wiring harness routed under the driver's seat becoming chafed as a result of the automatic seat adjustment resulting in a nondeployment or late deployment of airbag. Dealer recommended replacement of the wiring harness. THIS IS A DEFECTIVE DESIGN - this is a stock vehicle with 63k miles and normal use of moving the electronic driver's seat forward or back should not interfere with an airbag's performance.

The airbag warning lamp came on. We took it to LR and they said the replacement would cost $1038. The airbag needed to be replaced at our cost. However, I did see that there us a recall for airbags on my year and model car which my VIN is not included on. However, I believe this may be an error on LR that they did not include my vehicle. I should also note my vehicle is diesel and that might be a reason it was left out? I believe it to be part of recall Part 573 Safety Recall Report 17V‑154 The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Manufacturer Name : Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC Submission Date : MAR 13, 2017 the federal safety agency Recall No. : 17V‑154 Manufacturer Recall No. : N026 Manufacturer Information : Manufacturer Name : Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC Address : 555 MACARTHUR BOULEVARD MAHWAH NJ 07430 Company phone : [XXX] Population : Number of potentially involved : 205 Estimated percentage with defect : 100 % Vehicle Information : Vehicle 1 : 2016-2016 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER SPORT Vehicle Type : LIGHT VEHICLES Body Style : SUV Power Train : NR Descriptive Information : 2016 MY Land Rover Range Rover Sport Vehicles in select VIN range Production Dates : SEP 20, 2016 - OCT 24, 2016 VIN Range 1 : Begin : [XXX] End : [XXX]Not sequential VIN Range 2 : Begin : [XXX] End : [XXX] Not sequential Vehicle 2 : 2016-2016 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER Vehicle Type : LIGHT VEHICLES Body Style : SUV Power Train : NR Descriptive Information : 2016 MY Land Rover Range Rover Vehicles in select VIN range Production Dates : SEP 22, 2016 - OCT 25, 2016 VIN Range 1 : Begin : [XXX] End : [XXX] Not sequential INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
