When mobile device is placed in passengers seat seatbelt light comes on and air bag is turned off.
Vehicle rear-ended on a busy day between 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm on a thursday. all the air-bags in the car deployed. the driver side air-bag stayed inflated for a long time, and the right side air-bag also did not deflate. inflated air-bag held the driver so tight, and the driver could not exit out of the accident car. simultaneously seat also held the driver so tight. the driver suffered a significant injury fracturing his sternum. the car was less than 40 mph at the time of the incident. the manufacturer downloaded the electronic data record from the car and never shared it with the driver despite the written request. driver feels brake may have failed. driver has to slide out of the car as the side air bag stayed inflated. picture attached shows air-bag staying inflated even after 10-25 mins and started to go down slowly.

My daughter was involved in a mva in which she slammed on her brakes and the brakes locked on her. she hit the rear of the other vehicle. she was going roughly 25-30 mph. she was roughly 30-40 feet away from the other vehicle when the brakes were applied. her airbags did not deploy which considering the amount of damage done to her car is roughly $6500. i researched both issues and it seems to be a common problem in the vw jetta.

The passenger side airbag light intermittently lights up. sometimes immediately when starting the car, other times while driving and sometimes everything works fine. at times when the light is on during startup it stays on for quite a while (many miles) it may then go off or not. also, when the passenger seat occupant moves on the seat the light may or may not go off. i took the car to a vw dealer who could not find anything wrong and told me "well, the seabelt works, doesn't it?"
My airbag light came on. vehicle has never been hit or in any accident. now the steering wheel controls no longer work.
I started up my car and was driving from work, all of a sudden i see a bunch of my warnings light appear on the dashboard all at the same time. i was driving in alexandria city and the care was in motion when the lights appeared. the tire pressure light, traction control, abs, and even the air bag light. 3 different system have faults is a concern to my safety. i went to a mechanic twice and then the dealership, found out that the rear abs sensor needs to be changed to get rid of abs and traction control. after that was part was changed and the fault code was cleared the traction control and tire pressure still remained. air bag light code was cleared too. after a month driving all of those same light reappeared again after i started up my car, i was stationary when the lights reappeared and was about to drive in city. the lights did not go away after driving. a big job needs to be done in which this is an manufacturer error which vw needs to take care of. i've spent close to $1100 of part and labor and this problem still ...
