About 2 weeks ago airbag censor light came on dash and stays on now indicating something wrong with one of our airbags, we just got our car back on March 8th 2024, it only has a little over 44,000 miles on our car, the dealership we got it at is supposed to look at it and see what's wrong with it, I've read about all the recalls for this year and model our car has, we didn't know anything about any recalls for our car when we purchased it, just read about them today, I also read about the Tanaka airbag recall that is making it dangerous to drive your car, when we go this Wednesday to have our car look at, I'm going to mention all of the recalls on the car that the dealership didn't tell us about.
