My airbag light has been on for about 3000 miles, on my 2000 jetta, I took it in to the dealer, they said they needed to replace the drivers side airbag, after they ordered the wrong one 3 times, I finally got it installed after 6 weeks, retards!! well the day they put it in the airbag the light came on, so I guess Im going back in again untill they fix it right, has anyone else had this problem thanks?

Have you found anything out about this? My Airbag Icon just came on yesterday, and have came here to find out about it.

yeah well it ended up being the clock spring I guess, so far nothing has come on since, the airbags are warented for 75,000, but yeah I guess they replaced the clock spring and the wiring harness also, so hope this helps,

Was this covered under warranty? Using common sense I would think not, so how much did this repair cost you?

Yeah It was actually covered under warranty, I think since it was setting the airbag light off, they covered it, even though it wasnt actually the airbag! Since it was covered I never got a total price on how much $ it cost. but I would estimate, since It took them about 3 hours and two trips to the dealer to find the problem, and about another hour to finish the job, and diagnosis at this particular dealership is $90 an hour $360 in labor, and for the clock spring who knows?? But I got a new airbag module out of it, even though the old was ok, dang I wish I could have kept it, they are going for big $$$ on ebay. O well!!
