Example complaints

Air bags: “The passenger side airbag warning light began flashing ongoing right after the car's warranty expired at 60,000. Upon researching it was determined that a faulty airbag sensor was to blame on this 6 year old car and that since car was no longer under warranty that it would cost over $1,000 to replace this faulty sensor. Most manufacturers indicate that the life of their airbag equipment is between 10-15 years. …”
