During a severe front-impact crash on September 28, 2021, your 2014 Kia Sedona's airbags failed to deploy even though the collision was significant enough to total the vehicle and cause it to spin 45 degrees into a tree. No airbag warning lights or recalls had been issued before the accident. A repair would likely involve replacing the entire airbag system, including sensors and deployment modules, to restore this critical safety feature.

Your airbag warning light on the dashboard turns on and off intermittently, then stays on. The Kia dealer diagnosed a faulty passenger occupant sensor in the front passenger seat, but you've noticed the passenger airbag-off indicator responds when you press on the seat, suggesting the sensor may be working. The dealer quoted $1,000 for repair. The fix will likely involve diagnosing whether the sensor itself, the wiring to the sensor, or the airbag control module is causing the warning light.
