Consumer Description

The airbag light came on in my 2020 Subaru Outback in May 2021. I’ve had the vehicle to Reliable Subaru service department four times for repair and each time they were unable to repair the airbag system. The front passenger seat reacts like someone is in the seat even when it is empty. The problem is if a child is in the seat, the airbag will deploy most likely in an impact. The car is available for inspection at anytime.
