Takata recall. I got into my car to leave. I reached back for my seat belt and the airbag inside the drivers seat deployed. My car was not in motion, I was sitting in a parking lot and the car was not impacted by anything. The airbag struck me on the left side and I got out of the car and went inside to the er because I was already at the hospital for a regular appointment. I did not sit back hard in the seat, I simply reached back for my seat belt and the airbag deployed from within the drivers seat, not the side of the car.

After going and having the wiring checked at pugmire Suzuki, for my airbag recall, in November 2017, and having no problems seen, I am now in feburary 2017, experiencing my airbag warning/idiot light on my car's dash. Pugmire Suzuki refuses to rexamine the car, without me paying $100 to have it diagnosed. The car has not been in accident, and the airbag is unused.

Despite several attempts to fix the connection problems on the side airbags for both the passenger and driver side, the airbag light is still on. This is after Suzuki realized that the wiring harness was stretched too tight when the seat was rolled back into it's full length. The fix was to break the connection off of the bottom of the seat, wrap the connection in velcro, and stick the connection onto to carpeted floor. Despite several times of having the airbag light cleared, the light has once again come on. According to online research, many other drivers are having this exact same problem.

Warning light for air bag system came on and stays on, and I have not been in an accident and the car fax for this car shows no accident where airbags where used, at any time in the past. Called pugmire Suzuki, in marietta, ga. And they advised they would not fix it under warranty, since it was an electrical part, and that I would have no use of airbags, until it was diagnosed for 100 dollars and then repaired for an unknown amount that is more than the 100 dollars, and I decided not to go and get it fixed because it is 70 miles to the nearest dealer, and therefore dangerous to drive there with no air bag use possible. This should be paid for by the car maker, because it is a dangerous defect.

Airbag lights come on without incident, they have been turned off at the Suzuki dealer in the rivergate area of nashville in 2010. Since then, they have come on twice and have been able to turn them off. They came on again December of 2011, have not been able to turn them off. Car has not had any damage, wreck, water or storm. I have read online Suzuki is aware of this problem, please contact me if you can be of any help.
