my dome lights started to come on random then airbag light

I have contacted the dealer to see if they has been a recall or other cars to come in with such problems and they could not tell me. I was told to bring the car in for a diagnostic but with that being $150.00 or more depending on the location I take the car didn't seem like they cared or were concerned with an issue such as the airbag light on.
