Airbag Warning Light
You will want to have the airbag system ready to inflate
for your protection in an impact. The airbag system is
designed to be maintenance free. If any of the following
occurs, have an authorized dealer service the system
promptly:
• The Airbag Warning Light does not come on or flickers
during the six to eight seconds when the ignition
switch is first turned ON.
• The light remains on or flickers after the six to eight
second interval.
• The light flickers or comes on and remains on while
driving.

nearly deploys, and is otherwise unavailable.

In conjunction with other data gathered during a com-

used by Chrysler Group LLC and others to learn more
