Airbag light

Hi
Has anyone had any issues with their airbag light staying on?

I have a two week old 2013 explorer XLT with 900 miles on it and when I left for work the other day the airbag light was on and has stayed on. Dealer told me that something probably got kicked under the drivers seat and disconnected a wiring harness but no one has ever sat in the back seat.

Dealer has had the car to two days and is now telling me when they plug it into the computer it told him over a dozen things were wrong with the car but didn't give me specifics.

Has anyone seen this before?
Thanks

No, but sounds like a wiring harness/sensor issue...

some are reporting water leaks around the rear sunroof/roof rack area and maybe that's getting into the wiring ?!?

hate to direct anyone away from this great site,
but lot's more explorer activity and info over here --> Water Leak - Ford Explorer Ranger Enthusiasts "Serious Explorations"®

It was the sensor for the restraint system. Not sure why it happened but glad it is fixed.
