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.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AND MY VEHICLE IS NOT THAT OLD. IT'S FLASHING IN A PATTERN. I PURCHASED THE BEST EXTENDED WARRANTY AND BECAUSE AIRBAGS USUALLY DON'T HAVE PROBLEMS MY EXTENDED WARRANTY DOESN'T COVER IT. I HAVEN'T BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS OR ANYTHING THAT WOULD CAUSE THE AIRBAG LIGHT TO BE ON. IT'S ALWAYS ON.
