Picked up my new Ascent, 4 miles on it, bad sensor, couldn't even drive it off the lot due to liability.

Oh my, how long will it take to get it fixed?

When I picked up mine it had 7 miles on it, I guess the last 3 miles includes testing the air bag sensor:dunno:

Are you referring to the one for the Front Passenger? That will always be on unless someone is sitting in the seat. It was that way on my Outback also.

Air Bad Dash Light On

No, it was not the passenger light on/off for passenger on the center console. This was the air bag light on the dash - bad sensor - took 6 days to get my car back.

I was driving our 2020 Ascent and the SRS Air Bag red light came on in the center display. Called the dealer and the earliest appointment I could make was for a week from today. If it is the sensor like you mentioned, I assume I should not drive it.

Maybe stop by the dealer or even some auto parts stores can read the srs codes. That would give you a better idea if it’s safe to drive or not.
My e39 has had an airbag light on for about 6 months but I know the sensor that tripped it. Not a concern to me.
