As i was driving on a street, possibly two minutes after departing my home, is when i'd realized the air bag indicator light was illuminated. everytime for the next three days, the warning light would illuminate as soon as the car turned on. it finally shut off after i went out to shop. it was illuminated on my way to the shops. i turned the car off, shopped and when i turned it back on, the light did not illuminate and has not since then. now, it has been around two weeks since it turned off.
My car was bought in oct of 2015. it did not come with a rear camera back up system, however the center display (radio & controls panel) started displaying an error message about this back up system. at the same time the phone & radio controls located on the steering wheel also stopped working. when blue toothing a phone (have tried with more than one type) it often disconnects & when it does connect, it doesn't fully connect. both the steering wheel control & blue tooth problems started at the time the rear back up error began showing up. this error has been displaying for many months & i no longer have a warranty that would cover this expensive repair. the date selected is an estimation.
Takata recall . one tire has already been replaced at the owners expense in february 2019.. it was defective at the time of purchase and taken back to the dealership for replacement before the warranty expired. the other problem was electrical, the driver seat wasn't heating and the infotainment center rear camera was blurring causing a unsafe driving condition.. the dashboard was clicking out for a second while driving on a city street.
