Drivers seat air bag warning light is on without cause. Charge to repair this is unreasonable $700 and unjustified. This is a manufacturing defect, and the owner cannot afford to repair it. This means now that this relatively new vehicle will be operated with a potential serious defect. Is this a common problem, perhaps a trend?
