Consumer Description

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR DOES NOT WORK!!! AFTER TAKING IT TO THE DEALER 3 OR 4 TIMES THEY WERE FINALLY ABLE TO "DUPLICATE" THE PROBLEM...THE SENSOR WAS THEN REPLACED. IMMEDIATELY AFTER RECEIVING THE VEHICLE BACK FROM THE DEALER THE SENSOR LIGHT STARTED FLASHING WHILE AN ADULT WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT..IT NOW IS STILL EITHER FLASHING OR NOT COMING ON OR NOT TURNING OFF WHEN SOMEONE IS IN THE SEAT...I INFORMED THE DEALER OF THIS BUT OF COURSE AGAIN IT NEEDS TO BE DUPLICATED AS THEY PUT IT. I AM ADVISED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE INTO THE DEALERSHIP WHEN THIS OCCURS...SORRY BUT I AM TOO BUSY TO JUST STOP WHAT I AM DOING AND DRIVE TO THE DEALERSHIP...WHICH IS LOCATED IN ANOTHER CITY. THIS ITEM NEEDS TO BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY HOW MANY COMPLAINTS ARE NEEDED FOR THIS TO BE DONE? *JB
