air bag light on the instrument panel comes on about 10 minutes into driving. sometimes the passenger airbag light is light. not sure what the problem is, but probably the sensor????

The air bag light started coming on intermittently at 60k miles. Dodge wanted to charge me $90 just to do a diagnostic. I waited thinking I might be able to fix it myself. A friend did a diagnostic for me and found the problem with the Up Front Air Bag sensors. According to NHTSA and DaimlerChrystler, there is a recall going into effect in July 2007 for these sensors on vehicles in states with high use of road salt which caused the brass fittings on these sensors to corrode faster. Now I have to wait for the formal letter from Dodge before getting it fixed, unless I want to pay up front and have them reimburse me at a later date.

Had the vehicle for a short time, air bag light came on. Wife took it to the dealer to check out and they would not let her leave with it. A real hassle to rent vehicle. wife ended up walking home. Dealer had van for 8 days before getting the right part. never went back to that dealer, Bruce Campbell Dodge
