Accent 4-cyl

  • 96,000 miles
The airbag light came on. I have taken it to the dealer twice, they have cleaned around the sensor to make the light go off twice. They said that if it comes on again, they have to replace the entire passenger side seat. Dm scan code: B1448. They told me that if I don't get it fixed, the air bags will not deploy if there is a collision.
