The air bag light continues to go on. I've spent many dollars to get if fixed, however, no one seems to know why the light is constantly on. It seems to be on the passenger side. The light goes on whenever the key is engaged.

Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
The passenger light went on for no apparent reason and vehicle has never been in an accident. Vehicle only has 70,000 original miles. I noticed several others have had the same complaint. Is this a safety issue?
My airbag light has been coming on and going off for years depending on how the passenger seat is positioned but there was never a recall. After reviewing the site and other complaint for the same year make and model as my vehicle I'm wondering why this isn't a safety concern. The dealer doesn't know what's going on. I got it fixed last year they said it was the pins. Now they are saying the harness needs to be replaced.
Tl* the contact owns a 2002 toyota camry solara. While at a red light, a second vehicle crashed into the rear of the contact's vehicle. As a result, the contact struck the preceding vehicle. The contact's vehicle sustained front end damage, but the air bags did not deploy. No injuries were reported and a police report was filed. After the crash, the air bag sensor light remained permanently illuminated. The cause of the failure was not diagnosed nor repaired. The contact also indicated that the dashboard experienced cracking on the passenger side. The manufacturer was not notified of the failures. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was 48,000.
The passenger air bag light never goes off. Dealership says it'll cost $500 to fix but I don't understand what's wrong with it in the first place but because of it they say none of the air bags will work in a crash. Absolutely ridiculous.
2002 toyota solara. Consumer writes in regards to passenger side airbag light illuminated.
Passenger side seat belt does not retract...the seatbelt light stays on whether or not someone is sitting in the seat. I had the light diagnosed for $91 but they said that there was actually a problem with the airbag system. Regardless, the seatbelt still does not retract.
Passenger airbag light remains lit whether or not a passenger is sitting in the seat.
