Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Intermittent airbag light would come on. when i took to dealership, it was always out, and instead of paying extravagant diagnostic fees they said may not show problem, i did not get it looked at. it was repaired today....a harness electrical shortage which i feel should not be charged to the customer. the short is for something that only a certified tech repairs. airbags harnesses on this vehicle per the repair tech go out regularly, which sounds like a defect to me. the repair passed on to me was more than $300! also, iac attached with too little silicone, which causes the iac to burn and malfunction. it was also repaired. i do not have parts.....dealership kept them. *nm
