My car's RCM (restraint control module) failed suddenly in July 2016. The dashboard lit up loud alarms and four error lights or messages:
1. Airbag warning light
2. Traction control warning light
3. Service beltminder (that's the seatbelt sensor)
4. Hill start assist unavailable (and the hill start assist indeed stopped working)
I took the car to the local dealership, where they determined that the car was unsafe to drive and needed a replacement RCM. They tried to find the part, and then ordered one when they couldn't find it anywhere. That was over 8 weeks ago, and I still have no car. No information on whether my part has even been manufactured yet, where it's manufactured, or how long that might take.
