Intermittent airbag light would come on. When I took to dealership, it was always out, and instead of paying extravagant diagnostic fees they said may not show problem, I did not get it looked at. It was repaired today....a harness electrical shortage which I feel should not be charged to the customer. The short is for something that only a certified tech repairs. Airbags harnesses on this vehicle per the repair tech go out regularly, which sounds like a defect to me. The repair passed on to me was more than $300! also, iac attached with too little silicone, which causes the iac to burn and malfunction. It was also repaired. I do not have parts.....dealership kept them.
