I went in for my recall the next day I seen there was some lights on the esp bas lights so I called them they told me to bring it in, the guy on the red team ask me what the problem was I told him about the lights and he asked if I had any work done on the stearing I told him about the air bag recall he said that what cause it then he said the green team did the work so that guy took my car back said no it didn`T have anything to do with the airbag being taken care of but there might some wire cut I told him to stop so he charged me $55 then told me but the light is off. I really believe he charged me for something that was to do with the airbag because the lights weren`T on until I had this done.
