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

“Airbag light turned on while driving on rough road on hwy appx. 59k miles. Had passenger in car appx 200 lbs. Took to dealer at 60,500 miles. Is either a faulty seat bracket $2500+ to replace the passenger seat or damaged srs module $1000+, or possibly both. Dealer recommends bring car in for additional diagnostic to remove seat an center console $300+ in labor just for that. My warranty conveniently expired at 60k. Dealer could not guarantee a 500 mile extension to my warranty so I will not be proceeding with repairs. …”
