NHTSA Complaint #10299519 — 2006 SCION XA

1. STARTED THE CAR AND THE AIR BAG LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD WOULD NOT STOP FLASHING. I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW. THE CAR NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT, NEVER HAD ANY DAMAGE AND WAS PROPERLY MAINTAINED. STILL UNDER 60,000 MILES AND IS UNDER WARRANTY. *TR 2. IT WOULD FLASH NON STOP WHEN THE CAR WAS OPERATING 3. TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER TO SEE IF THEY CAN RESOLVE THE ISSUE. THEY FOUND OUT THAT THE WIRE UNDER THE PASSENGER SEAT BECAME LOOSE. I WAS TOLD THAT A WATER BOTTLE UNDER THE SEAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THE WIRE TO DISCONNECT, BUT BEFORE I CHECKED THE CAR IN THERE WAS NOTHING UNDER THE SEAT. APPARENTLY MOVING THE SEAT BACK AND FORTH CAN CAUSE THE WIRE TO DISCONNECT. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD IN BOTH CASES. I FEEL THAT SOMEBODY SHOULD LOOK INTO THIS. THE DEALER RECONNECTED THE WIRE AND RESET THE SYSTEM
