Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Picked up the car on 12/31/01 without any problems. beginning 1/2/02, the front passenger srs warning light flashed on an off intermittently. took to dealer 1/3/02. they determined that the wiring had been incorrectly routed under the front passenger bucket seat and had become crimped when the power seat was moved. the dealer is making the repairs which includes removal of the front passenger bucket seat. i am pleased with their response, but concerned that such a problem could occur and that there may very well be more cars with the same problem.*ak
