Consumer Description

DRIVERS SIDE UNDER SEAT AIRBAG IMPACT SENSOR WAS NOT MOUNTED FIRMLY TO FLOOR. IT WAS JUST DANGLING FROM THE WIRING HARNESS, EFFECTIVELY DISABLING THE AIRBAGS. DEALER LOOKED AT SEAT PEDESTAL AND DETERMINED THAT THE WRONG SEAT MOUNT WAS INSTALLED AT THE FACTORY. DEALER IS INSTALLING THE CORRECT SEAT MOUNT. I AM NOT CONVINCED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WIRING HAS BEEN DONE CORRECTLY EITHER. *AK
