XL7 6-cyl

  • 24,000 miles
I am an owner of a 2007 Suzuki XL-7 AWD limited version. About a year after purchase, the passenger airbag located immediately below the passenger side front dash board began to show an outline in the dashboard. It appears like there is some pressure from the inside of the airbag pushing up against the dashboard material and cutout for the airbag deployment area. The airbag has not yet deployed not has the vehicle been in any accidents. It appears there is a poor quality dash material or a defective airbag. I am concern that when the airbag is needed, it will not deploy. Suzuki would not even replace it while under warranty because they determined there was nothing wrong with it. Now that its out of warranty, the problem is still evident and may become worst with time.

Airbag malfunction. Light does not always initiate when there is a passenger in the car. My concern is that if there is an accident that the airbag will not operate properly or at all.
