1. takata -tried to see if my car is part of class action autoairbagsettlement.com wouldn't take my VIN; glitch. 2. head gaskets - it was know that their head gaskets are an issue causing (me & many) to have to have them replaced costing $2000+; it seems this should be reimbursable and a recalled item. Respectfully request you consider this.

The red air bag light on my car's dash is constantly on, and will not turn off. I am concerned because my car is a 2007 Subaru Legacy, and I know that there has been a recall on cars that have the takata air bags installed in them. I am not sure why my car's year and model have not been included in this national recall. I have an appointment tomorrow with a Subaru dealer to have them diagnose this issue. At this time the problem is unknown. I was told that my airbags will not deploy because the red air bag light is on.

The air bag sensor does not work in the passenger seat, the part fails mostly in cold weather even when there's no passenger. It appears that at about 60 degrees it works ok, this is a huge problem because according to the dealer the system will not work at all as long as the lights on.

On August 2nd, 2008, I was in an accident in 2007 Subaru Legacy, sw, as a result of car "fishtailing" after emergency maneuver on a highway. None of the airbags deployed, even though I was traveling with speed of 60+ mph and car was declared total loss. Subaru is very reluctant with following up on reasons why airbags have not deployed.
