| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I purchased a 2005 kia spectra ex on july 11, 2005 and have also been experiencing issues with my "advanced" passenger air bag system. as other posters have stated, the light has come on while driving when a person of proper stature is in the seat and stays off for varying amounts of time. i live in massachusetts thankfully we have the lemon law here that allows you some protection for defects of this nature. tomorrow my car goes in for the final repair attempt and if it is not fixed, it will be classified as lemon, allowing me a refund or replacement vehicle. my vehicle has been in for this problem 4 times and still does not work properly. the last time it was in, the system was re-programmed in accordance with a recall that was issued. this reprogramming did not fix the problem, there is obviously a larger issue at hand. if anyone else has gotten to this point, please contact me at sweetclr@yahoo.com. *nm |
