Owner-reported complaints naming the airbag system, filed with NHTSA
Data refreshed
Airbags reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

ONCE IN A WHILE, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS MOIST AND RAINING, THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER (ALL GAUGES: TACHOMETER, SPEEDOMETER, FUEL, TEMPERATURE) DROP TO ZERO, FLIP TO THE MAXIMUM AND THEN BACK TO ZERO. THE "AIR BAG" LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF. AFTER A MINUTE, THE INSTRUMENTS WORK FINE. THE RPOBLEM REPEATS FOR THE FIRST 10 MINUTES OF THE DRIVE.
