    Airbag light came on at about 85,000 miles. Occurred after starting up after being parked facing the wind on a very windy day. Took to dealer, needs new rcm module. Was told no airbags would deploy until replaced. Apparently it is very expensive repair for something that concerns safety of the vehicle.
