Consumer Description

AIRBAG FAILURE LIGHT ON DASH CAME ON AT 65,000 MILES. I HAVE READ MANY REPORTS OF AN INTERNAL FAULT WITH THE FIRMWARE IN THE ORIGINAL FACTORY CRASH SENSOR, I THINK THE MANUFACTURE (VOLKSWAGEN) SHOULD RECALL AND REPLACE THESE DEFECTIVE SENSORS. THE AIRBAG MAY DEPLOY AT ANY TIME OR NOT DEPLOY IN A WRECK. *TR
