While driving along air bag warning lights came on. Sometimes air bag warning light flashed on and off. Sometimes the light would stay on. Vehicle was taken back to the dealership twice. Dealer stated that the entire air bag computer system was replaced. Problem still exist with the air bag.
My air bag light comes on 1 or 2 times a month, while driving. It stays on for 15-30 seconds. My next problem is that my engine check light came on when I started my car in 11/99. I took it to the shop and it was a faulty fuel injector. This was repaired but I don't feel this should have happen to a new car at such an early age. Also around 16,000 miles they had to replace my rotors. This also should not have happen at this early age.
