Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The service air bag light on with code b2502, b1104, b2500. They call the replaced part as display/clock assembly which makes it sound like a non-safety related issue but it is actually something wrong with the airbag. It happened twice on my car. The first time it is was still in warranty, mileage should be around 30k-40k km. This time the mileage is 125506km. What makes me nervous is that the passenger airbag light in the display/clock unit flashes irregularly for about 10-30 seconds when starting the car. …”
