i have just recently purchased this vehicle i love it but my airbag light stays on all the time even tho the car has not been into an accident. i was wondering if anyone had any ideas?

go to the dealer, airbags are a scary area for dealerships, lots of potential for lawsuits and the such, so they should get you taken care of at no expense.
FYI, my 01 GTI had the light come on, I brought it in and they cleared the codes, but said if the light comes on again that they legally have to replace the airbag componentry

Awesome thanks alot will do. Has your light come on again since then?
