Reported on Apr 01, 2001
| SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT, FOR THE LAST 5 YEARS, MY AIR BAG LIGHT HAS COME ON IN MY 1998 GRAND PRIX GTP. I HAVE SEARCHED FOR RECALLS AND NOTHING COMES UP. IT WOULD COME ON FOR 6 MONTHS AND THEN GO OFF FOR 6 MONTHS. FOR THE LAST YEAR IT HAS STAYED ON. 5 MECHANICS HAVE LOOKED AND IT AND COMPUTER DID NOT COME UP WITH ANY CODES. FINALLY I WENT TO A NEW MECHANIC THE OTHER DAY AND THEY SAID I HAVE TO CARRY IT TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER CALLED AND SAID THE PART IS $21.00, BUT THE LABOR WILL BE $500.00. SOMETHING ABOUT THE HARNESS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. SAID THEY HAD THE PART IN STOCK, BECAUSE THEY HAVE ALREADY REPLACED SEVERAL OTHERS. HOW DO YOU GET A RECALL ON THESE. *JB | |
