Air Bags · at 2,014 miles · reported May 6, 2015
The SRS warning light remained on constantly. Had it repaired at 4984 miles.

Repair report and photo are available. This caused the failure of the SRS. No injury or accident occurred but the possibility of fire and no airbag in a crash could have resulted.
