The SRS light is on steady for about a month now. I get a message on the display "check passenger airbag" and the passenger airbag "on/off" switch is in the off position, which I cannot change. When I look up the VIN I get no answer for my make and model. I really think my car should be included on this recall.

On june 9, 2011 I drove to sacramento, california to visit my cousin when I got there I went to lock my doors but the lock kept jumping up and down. It finally locked after 12 attempts. I took it to the dealer and they quoted me a price of $3500.00 to replace the regulator. The second incident occurred on july 18, 2011 with my brakes.the break warning light came on. I took it to the dealer and $795.00 they claimed I needed for both brakes and rotors which I could not understand since 6 months prior the rotors had been replaced. I again had to have the rotors and breaks replaced in july 2012 as well as the back breaks but this time I took it to another place other than the dealer and here it is 2014 and they are still holding and the cost was $495.00 for both front and back as well 4 new michelin tires the dealer wanted to charge me $495.00 for the back alone. The third incident occurred in las vegas I was in heavy traffic and the car shut off. It started back right away but I had a ten hour drive to make it home and this worried me. The fourth incident was with the sunroof I went to the car wash and the wax that was used caused the sunroof to stick after it dried and later the motor went out because of multiple attempts to open the roof, the dealer quoted me a price of $5000.00 to repair it. Last but not least the SRS light came on, I took it to the dealer and I was told that the drivers seatbelt and back seatbelt on drivers side were defective and if I had an accident the air bags might not deploy and the seatbelts might not hold, this will cost me $700.00 to have fixed. I don't have a money tree growing in my yard. Also my rear taillight kept going out and what we found was that the entire casing had caught on fire and burned. The entire unit had to be replaced. I have paid more in repairs on this cars than I paid in groceries over the pass five years.

2006 mercedes benz c230 68k miles. Error message states "SRS restraint system malfunction. Drive to workshop". I am told that my entire supplemental restraint system has been deactivated until this is resolved. Repair costs around $700 to fix and I do not have an extra $700 laying around right now. From reading online, this is an extremely common/widespread problem with mercedes and should lead to a recall as people's lives are at stake when driving a vehicle without working airbags or pre-tensioners.
