What owners wrote

Air bag sensor and computer system malfunction the driver side sensor at times malfunction and so the software disable the air bag system as a whole. The service air bag message comes on for few minutes and then disappears assuming everything is ok. Took it to the dealer and they informed me that I need to change whole airbag sensor kit and would cost me more than 1300 dollars. This should be a recall as this relates to safety
