The airbag light illuminated in my car shortly after purchasing it used. It was still under warranty and the dealer fixed it, saying something came unplugged under the seat. The light came on approximately a year later, when the car was no longer under warranty. I had to go to the dealer to have the problem diagnosed again and this time they said there was something wrong with a sensor in the door and they would have to take apart the door to fix it.
