Consumer Description

THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN PERSISTENT SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. THE AIR BAG LIGHT JUST CAME ON AT RANDOM AND THEN WENT OFF AFTER BEING RESET. AFTER A WHILE, I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL MECHANIC AND THEY SAID THE CLOCK SPRING WAS BROKE. HOW? I DO NOT KNOW. I HAVE JUST DEALT WITH IT SINCE ALL OF THE ELECTRONICS HAVE BEEN WORKING. ANOTHER ALMOST 500 DOLLAR REPAIR TO A CAR THAT'S VALUE IS NOT WORTH TRADING IN AT THIS POINT. IT HAS BEEN A GREAT AND RELIABLE CAR OTHERWISE. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
