Consumer Description

THE LIGHTS COME ON WHEN THE SEASONS CHANGE AND THE CAR IS WARMED UP. THE ALARM GOES OFF USUALLY WHEN IT IS WINDY. THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS THE MOST COMMON. IT CAN ALSO GO ON WHEN PARKED AND CAR IS RUNNING. AS THE YEARS HAVE GONE ON, IT'S BEEN LESS PREDICTABLE. OCCASIONALLY THERE ISN'T ANY POWER WHEN I PLUG SOMETHING INTO THE CONSOLE, TOO. I'VE HAD THE DEALER LOOK AT IT MULTIPLE TIMES BUT THEY HAVEN'T FOUND ANYTHING. SOMETIMES THEY DON'T EVEN WRITE IT UP WHEN I'M HAVING SOMETHING ELSE REPAIRED. ALL THE DEALER HAS TOLD ME IS THAT MY AIRBAG IS DISABLED WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON. WHEN THE ALARM GOES OFF, IT DOESN'T WANT TO BE SHUT OFF. IT TAKES A LOT OF TRIES SOMETIMES TO GET IT TO STOP.THE TRACTION CONTROL IS THE NEWEST THING. THAT'S BEEN ONLY FOR THE LAST YEAR OR SO.
