Consumer Description

AIR BAG FAULT LIGHTS HAS BEEN COMING ON AND GOING OFF FOR OVER A YEAR,,, EVERYTIME I GET TIME TO GO BY AND GET IT FIXED, IT GOES OFF, HOOKED THE COMPUTER UP AND IT SHOWS NO FAULT... NOW IT IS ON ALL THE TIME, I WAS TOLD THAT IT NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED BUT AT GREAT EXPENSE TO ME,,, HOWEVER IT WAS NOT REALLY HURTING ANYTHING.. I WAS TOLD THAT IT DOES NOT AFFECT THE AIR BAG DEPLOYING, BUT I WONDER... THE ONLY WAY TO FIND OUT IS HAVE AN ACCIDENT AND I DO NOT WANT TO DO THAT, SO WE , THE OWNERS ARE AT THE MERCY OF THE VW CORPORATION. *JB
