“My dashboard has a logo of a red flashing passenger with a airbag red ball. It flashes non stop when ever I turn on the ignition. However when I checked for air bag recall it's not coming up on the list. Any suggestions?”

“The airbag light is flashing. We line in nm so we're not part of the recall but we drive frequently on snowy salty mountain roads so we might be affected by the same issue.”
