What owners wrote
Head on Collison with light pole high speed the no airbags deployed. Vehicle was towed to tow yard is awaiting insurance to estimate damages.
Just driving normal down the road on a city streetand the airbag light came on and now stays on. Car was mfg 09/2015 and has 44k on it. Cannot find any recalls but one item from motor 1 dated 07/14/2017 that said faulty wiring on journey crossover could cause the the driver side airbag to unexpectedly deploy. When I called the dealer they said not true and it's not covered.how can this be? Pleas help
