AFTER 2 complaints about defective air bag sensors "THAT GOT ME NOWHERE", I guess you can forget about it because I put a piece of tape over the airbag light. they put the junk sensors in ALL the 2005 vans and some 2006 but for some reason NOT ALL WERE RECALLED.. I don't understand why this hasn't been resolved.. I'll be [XXX] if I'm paying 300-400 bucks for something that other people are getting repaired for free.. THANKS FOR NOTHING...
