Interesting. If it makes you feel any better, I was run off the road by a tractor trailor, and my airbag went off just fine. Felt like I hit a hay bail.

My car was recently at the dealer and I today I looked under my seats and the wires seems to be moved around and re-taped. They might have done something under there.

There are certain vehicles that have been affected. I know I have like 14 VIN's affected. Not all of the STI's if any are affected. You all should be receiving your letter shortly if you are affected or you can call your local dealer to find out by having them run a vehicle coverage inquiry.

I havent received any details on which STI's if any. All I can say is you can call your dealer and have them find out. They can run a vehicle inquiriy for you to find out.
