Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When the vehicle is driven over a bump, the wiring harness below the passenger or driver seat may become loose, causing a high resistance in the srs system and causing the srs error light to illuminate and an error code to be saved, the system may become inactive, and in the event of a crash, the srs system may not function, and may lead to injury or death which could have been avoided had the connectors not come loose and deactivated the srs system. This has been observed on numerous e46's of various years.”
