Jetta

  • 10,500 miles
Airbag warning light went on yesterday. I plan to have it repaired this week. However, this is the third time this year I have seen the airbag warning light go on. The two previous times were each repaired, on 16 June 2010 and 24 June 2010. At the time of each of those two prior repairs, I was informed that a sensor had failed and that the front passenger airbag was thus disabled. This means that a vital safety component failed twice this year and possibly a third time.
