S-60 AIR BAG

Post by GSP974 »

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2001 S-60 THAT IS AN EXCELLANT CAR. i CARRIED IT IMMEDIATELY AT 80,000 MILES AND HAD THE TIMING BELT AND ALL REPLACED. iT STILL HAD LIGHT ON THE DASH LITE UP SO I CARRIED TO THE VOLVO DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE COMPUTER FLASHED. tHEY GOT ALL THE LIGHT TO GO OFF EXCEPT THE AIR BAG LIGHT. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN IN A CRASH AND THE DRIVERS SIDE SEAT MODULE SHOWED OPEN. BUT THE CAR FAX SHOWED NO EVENTS AND ONLY REGULAR SERVICES AND REGISTRATIONS ETC. DOES ANY ONE KNOW OF A FIX FOR THIS? THEY SAID AT VOLVO TO PURCHASE A NEW DRIVERS SEAT WITH AIR BAGS AND MODULE. IS THERE NOT JUST A MODULE IN THE SEAT LIKE A REGULAR CAR. IF THE AIR BAG HAD DEPLOYED THEN THE SEAT WOULD BE DESTROYED.... JUST WANT A PRO TO ADVISE... CONTACT ME AT [email protected]

STOP YELLING!
Anyway Carfax doesn't always ( actually almost never) will tell you a car was in a wreck unless a police report was made.
If that's the sensor you need, unfortuately you may have to buy a seat, look in a wrecking yard such as:
www.erievovo.com and DON'T TYPE IN ALL CAPS unless you're yelling at someone
