I had same warning when the car was new. I have read other posts with similar problem but haven't seen it for a while. This can be "reset" by the dealer and mine did so. Seemed to work but S.A. wasn't satisfied that this was a long term solution so ordered in and installed a new airbag control module (didn't have one in stock). More than a year now and no more airbag warnings.

I am having a same problem now when my wife sits there. I need to go to the first dock with my V551 charger installation. I am still waiting for the feedback from our folks, but looks like it takes a bit time to figure out... maybe I need to put my car first to fix this air bag...

Yow

It looks like both doors were damaged. For a good job, I think at least $500, probably more.
