Your car is fine. Just don't crash it.
These messages are usually due to a bad electrical contact.

Yea I got those a couple of times the first month I had the car when I have a passenger. But when I am driving alone, i never get those lights. Now, two months later, when i have passengers, the warning light don't come on anymore... But I am definitely taking my car to the dealership if it comes on again.

Hmm, I just got that recently. For me, it seems to be triggered when I use the heated seats function for the passenger side: the airbag light goes on along w/ the seatbelt light...then the airbag light goes off but the seatbelt light remains: does that mean the airbag would still deploy in an accident? I have to restart the car to get rid of the seatbelt light. Did anyone get it fixed? How long did it take and did the prb occur again? |

To clarify, of course it doesn't matter what happens on the driver's side, if I use the heated seats there, since the 'airbag light' is only referring to the passenger. |

got the car back after 2.5 days- they cleared the codes- and could not make the lights light up again - they cleaned and checked each connection - no replacment of any parts - a suggestion that moisture might have created a momentary short- who knows - will post again if it happens again -
