Air bag light remained on while driving. Vehicle was taken to the dealer, who informed the consumer that the problem was due to the wiring harness being too short.

I own a 1998 Jeep Wrangler VIN number [xxx] I purchased new on Apr 10, 1998 since Feb. 1, 2003 the instrument panel has off and on not been working properly. This included all the gauges and air bag indicator. I have take my vehicle to a authorized dealer service shop for repair on 2-6-2003, 10-16-2003 and 5-19-2004. The first two times they said the the instrument panel had corrosion and they sprayed it. The last time they said it was to much corrosion and that I had to pay for replaceing it about $900 this vehicle as of this date has only 16076 miles on it. This is very dangerous because I have driven this vehicle when instructment and air bag indicator has stop working.
