| I feel stronly that i should not have to pay for a repair service (taillight sensor problem) that should have been fixed permanently while the vehicle was under warranty. the srs warning light problem is not only a mechanical issue, but also a safety hazard to the driver, leaving the airbag inoperable. i do not believe that a consumer should have to pay out $1200 to service the srs warning light every time the owner disconnects and reconnects the battery. | |||
