Description of the problem | My airbag indicator came on so i took my vehicle to taylor kia in toledo. The service department let me know that the computer module has failed and my airbags are non-functioning. They told me that they would fix the error for $875. 00. I didn't do it at the time as i was getting other work done on the vehicle. I then learned that a number of other kia vehicles have been recalled for this same type of failure. I called kia customer service (i also own a 2012 that will be under the recall). The rep told me that mine may show up, but i just needed to wait. I want to ensure that i report mine because the issue probably goes beyond the 2012. |
