The air bag warning light came on during may 2016 after I stopped for gas. The dealer replaced the passenger air bag inflator during 2014 (no charge under a manufacturer recall) but indicated I have to pay 715.00 To repair the air bag sensor. I have read about the takata air bag problems and am very concerned about my family and my safety but this is not a movable part and I think this should be a mfg recall.
