My SRS light was blinking so the dealer change the airbags under the warranty at 69K miles.

After 10 months and 79K miles the SRS light is again blinking. Is the new airbag which the dealer installed covered under warranty. I called them and they said they will charge $125 just to look at the issue.

 

seems like a diagnostic charge.. if it is in fact that.. that would get voided and you wouldnt need to pay for anything.. or at least thats how i have seen it.

 

I'll tell you my experience and this is only my experience. I had the same problem with the air bag on the driver's side. Not sure if it was the seat or side curtain, but nonetheless I had to get it replaced cause apparently it failed. Did it? Who knows. Before the dealer replaced this air bag they had told me that don't be surprised if it starts blinking again cause it could be something else. Surely enough it started blinking after 2 months. This time they suspected it was the air bag module. I wasn't going to pay another $1,000 again and be out $2,000 cause the "computer said so". Maybe not this time. I reset the air bag maybe 2 times after I brought back the car and they diagnosed it (free of charge) and haven't blinked since last year in July so almost a full year now.

So maybe that's the same problem? Luckily my dealership didn't charge me a diagnose fee since they gave me a heads up.

I think the airbag is a RECALL anyway.. Take it back..

Herb Chambers in Westboro, MA. Far drive but worth it. Sadly the guy I delt with no longer works there. But still great service and respect I received being an young adult.
