    The air bag warning light came on. I took it to the dealer. They said the airbag doesn't not work now and they are blaming in on a wiring issue, not an air bag issue. They want me to pay $220 to install a new spiral cable, but give me the part for free. This doesn't make sense. The toyota tacoma trucks had the same issue and they had a recall. *tr
