1993 Volvo 850 Air bags Problems

“Srs light is on. Brought to lovering Volvo and they advised the whole system needs to be replaced at a cost of $1200. In reading past complaints listed on this sight, I see quite a few aribag problems, one being that the wires are crossed from production and that caused the failure. I also see many complaints that airbags are deploying for no reason....is this because of this wiring??? I think Volvo needs to look at this issue. Right now I am driving without airbags because of the cost. I wonder how many other people are doing the same!! …”

“While driving at a low, both front air bags deployed without vehicle being in an accident. This resulted in driver being burnt on their neck and stomach. The dealer and manufacturer has been notified. Please provide more details. Ts”

“Potentially fatal design flaw discovered - air bag wiring has failed through poor design. According to dealer service, the air bag power wire has slipped into the tilt wheel mechanism and pinched it to the point of shearing the wire insulation and causing a short which has disabled the entire srs. This is a non-contact, non-wear part and has failed solely due to poor design. Cost to repair is prohibitive. Volvo USA will not acknowledge responsibility for the problem. Should be recalled before any fatalities!!!”

“Air bag was supposedly found split when horn, steering column, and steering wheel was being replaced. Volvo may be using poor quality components in vehicles.”
