| Air bag control unit failure. this is an electronic module that controls the air bag system. when this unit fails, the air bag system no longer will function. i believe that this item failed prematurely and should be covered under some warranty oe recalled, as this is a safety issue, and one would not expect this item to fail at such low mileage. the cost to replace is well over $1000.00. *tr | |||
