When I would start my car the airbag light would come on this is the 2nd time this problem has occurred -1st time was when my car was just around 50K miles--airbag light came on--was told that it was due to having to replace harness getting crimped-caused a short(this was covered by warranty). My car now hit around 110K miles and same thing happened again. I took it in and stated same thing--explained what the problem was again--listed has having a short and repaired. Was told it was not under warranty even though it had to do with airbag and was charged a diagnostic fee and that covered the cost of fixing the air bag sensor short again. My problem is if Chrysler knows there is a problem of where this harness is located and it keeps on getting "crimped" and causing a short should this not be looked at and be fixed?
