Jetta

  • 127,000 miles
April 12, 2019 airbag light appeared. I took the car to the service center of the Volkswagen dealership car was purchased at. After diagnosis the driver's side seat belt tested faulty which could be rendering the airbag inoperable. The parts needed to be ordered in order to repair it at a second appointment. Concerning that the dealerships don't carry parts that could affect the safety features of the Jetta in the event of an accident. This Jetta has never had the airbags deploy or any issues with the seat belts until now.
