Air Bags · at 126,000 miles · reported Jul 27, 2019
Driving down a residential street and all of a sudden my airbag light comes on and makes a chime noise. Now it does it off and on the whole time it is being driven. Also if your sitting steal and you turn the steering wheel it will do it as well. I'm thinking it may be due to the clockspring.
Electrical System · at 170,900 miles · reported Sep 25, 2017
Identical issue as found with NHTSA # 10908927 vehicle stalls while driving and cannot be restarted without putting the vehicle in park. Purchased the vehicle used with 170,000 miles on it. Carfax shows great care into the vehicle, however within first 24 hours after purchase have found it to stall while driving and at idle near 6x. Have taken to auto repair shop/autozone/used ifixit code finder and nothing is found. This has created hazardous driving conditions as it will happen at random.

While the vehicle was stationary and off, I AM unable to start the car. All lights work properly, and the battery is new & working. After hitting the starter with a wrench, the vehicle started. This continues to happen.
