| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: After only 3 months of ownership, the malfuction engine indicator light came on and stayed on. took the car to the service center, i guess they reset the sensor on it. the end of september the airbag light came on and stayed on. contacted dealer and he set up appointment to have it looked at. they looked at it and said they would have to order the part to fix it. i waited about 1 1/2 weeks before i called the dealer to see what the holdup was. they picked up my car from work and took it to the service center on october 6th. my receipt that was printed, states that the air bag test failed and they replaced it and also some ring. today, two days later the airbag light is on again!!!! i am wondering how safe it is to drive this vehicle with this problem. the car is going back to the service center on monday, oct. 11th. |
