Air bag light was lighting intermittently. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who ran a diagnostic. The diagnostic didn't retrieve any fault coded therefore nothing was repaired. The dealer also indicated that they did not have to do any repairs under the vehicle's warranty because the vehicle was not purchased from them. The consumer took the vehicle to the sales dealer who repaired the problem within a day. The dealer found that the SDM harness was improperly routed and pulled at the connector. (nar)
