I have a 2003 Mazda Tribute LX. My airbag driverside airbag light is coming on. Sometimes it stays on other times it blinks continuously. My Mazda warranty ran out this past may and I am told that it will cost to get the diagnosis and to have repaired. I believe this is a safety issue and should be addressed as soon as possible and I am single with a fixed income. Are other people having this same issue with their Mazda? help!
