Red
Airbag / SRS
The supplemental restraint system has a fault and may not deploy.
This light indicates a fault within your vehicle's Supplemental Restraint System, which means the airbags or seatbelt pretensioners may not deploy correctly during a collision. It is a critical safety system that requires professional attention to ensure it functions as intended in an emergency.
What to do
- 01Pull over safely as soon as you find a secure location.
- 02Turn off the engine and wait a few minutes before restarting to see if the light resets.
- 03If the light remains on after restarting, drive cautiously directly to a professional repair facility or have the vehicle towed.
- 04Avoid carrying passengers in the front seat until the system has been properly inspected.
Other common causes
Common causes include a faulty seat position sensor, a damaged clock spring in the steering wheel, loose wiring connections under the seats, or a malfunctioning crash sensor.
How we check it
Our technicians perform a diagnostic scan to read the specific fault codes stored in the SRS module to pinpoint the exact location of the system failure.
Symbols vary by make and model — always confirm in your owner's manual. If the light is red, the car feels different, or the light is blinking, stop and call us before driving further.
