Consumer Description

WE WERE ON AN EXTENDED TRIP WHEN THE "AIRBAG OFF" LIGHT ALONG WITH "SRS" CAME ON AND STAYED ON. AFTER WE RETURNED, THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. THEY INDICATED THAT THE "BABY SENSOR" IN THE SEAT WAS DEFECTIVE AND MUST BE REPLACED. WE DO NOT HAVE A BABY AND WOULD NOT HAVE NEED FOR THIS SENSOR. OUR CONCERN IS THAT IF THE SENSOR CAN FAIL ON IT'S OWN AND IF THE AIRBAGS ARE DEACTIVATED IN THE CASE OF AN ACCIDENT, SERIOUS INJURY MAY OCCUR. WE HAVE ALL THE PAPERWORK TO BACKUP THIS SITUATION. *JB
