Consumer Description

OUT OF NOWHERE WHEN VEHICLE IS SITTING STILL, THE AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS POPPING ON. IT WILL STAY ON FOR A WHILE, BUT THEN GO OFF. I WENT TO HAVE MY OIL CHANGED AND EVENT THOUGH IT WAS AT 3,000 MILES, THE OIL WAS LOW, DARK, SLUDGY AND METAL SHAVINGS WERE FOUND IN MY OIL PAN---ENGINE SOMETIMES SPUTTERS. FINALLY MY INTERIOR LIGHTS WON'T GO OFF, I HAVE TO JUST KEEP THEM TO THE OFF POSITION VERSUS "DOOR" SO THAT MY BATTERY DOESN'T DRAIN.
