Example complaints

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

“My SRS system has thrown the SRS light with code B00C0:11AB Passenger Occupancy sensor A short to ground. According to The weight pad is faulty and requires a $989 part replacement. The SRS system is disabled with the light on which is a safety issue in today's vehicles as none of the airbags will deploy in an accident with the SRS light currently on. No consumer related malfunction detected meaning there were no broken wires found nor evidence of a consumer triggered fault found such as wet or previously wet pad which could have caused the fault. It is an internal part failure.”
