Vehicle has service air bag light on, light goes off and on, has been doing this at all speeds, but never stays on for more than a minute. Car had this light on when I purchased this car from a Dodge dealer in Dec.2011, and they said that they repaired it, but it was not reported in detail to GM warranty service, so they lied. Now car needs air bag repairs, not covered by any warranty, and it will cost over $900, and car only has 88,464 miles on it. This was told to me by a Chevrolet dealer who is doing the ignition switch recall for my car. I don't have that kind of money, as I'm still making car loan payments for the next 4 years. I think this is awful, air bags and sensors should last longer than 88,464 miles. My 1997 Saturn never had air bag problems, and it ran until 297,336 miles. Awful, too expensive to repair!!!!!, no assistance with paying for airbag repair, and can't sell car unless it is repaired. The Dodge dealer who sold me the car should be held liable, as they did work to get the service air bag light off, when I purchased the car from them. They hid the information from me, when I purchased the car. Air bags do not need ongoing service.
