Was driving down 95 by howland Maine when my airbag light came on, I pulled over shut truck off and restarted it still didn't go away, so I decided to just drive it right to garage we're I founded out it could be a few things, so I got 2 brand new airbag sensors but after we put them in, it still didn't go off. But I seen we're your company put this airbag recall out. I was wondering if that could be why? I got paperwork we're we put sensors in.
