Srs light has been on for over a year. The dealer said it would be very expensive to have it "looked at." recently, the o2 sensor came on and i've made 3 trips to have it fixed. It will cost me 420.20 to have the problem solved. I've been reading about recalls for this very problem, and as a senior, i'd sure appreciate some help. This doesn't seem fair. *tr
