Consumer Description

KIA SORENTO-2007-FRONT PASSENGER-AIR BAG "IDIOT LIGHT". FOR 2 YRS. TRIPS BACK AND FORTH REGARDING THIS LIGHT TO DEALER. UNABLE TO ASSURE THAT AIR BAG SYSTEM IS REALLY WORKING. LIGHT IS ON WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN SEAT AND INDICATES THE AIR BAG IS OFF. SEATS AND SENSORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED TO NO AVAIL. THEY JUST TOLD ME TODAY 8-23-2010 THAT THERE IS NO MORE THEY CAN DO. LIGHT IS STILL ON AND THEIR COMPUTER STILL SAYS THAT IT IS WORKING. YOU HAVE MANY COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME THING-IS ANYTHING BEING DONE? EITHER THE LIGHT,SENSOR,AIR BAG OR COMPUTER IS NOT RIGHT. THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT OCCURRENCE-DOESN'T MATTER WHEN OR WHO IS SITTING IN THE SEAT, IF THE CAR IS WARM OR COLD. THE SEAT(SENSOR) HAS BEEN CHANGED,COMPUTER HAS DIAGNOSED AND KIA HAS TALKED TO THE TECH'S. THEIR MACHINES ARE NOT TELLING THEM THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG BUT THE SERVICE MANAGERS AND SALES PEOPLE HAVE WITNESSED IT. ARE YOU INVESTIGATING THIS? *TR
