problem #4

Mountaineer

  • Automatic transmission
  • 187,000 miles

Sometimes the airbag comes on, sometimes it blinks, sometimes it's there for half my commute, sometimes it doesn't come on at all. This is probably tied into the electrical issues. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if there was no air bag at all. That's just how things seem to go with this car.

Mountaineer SUV V8

The seat belt and airbag light stays on all the time. No one knows why, and I don't know.

Any body have this problem?

I just need to know if anyone else has this problem, and I'm worried about the airbag popping out.
