air bag light

A older friend with a 2002 PT Cruiser has had her air bag light going on at times.

Usually after she's been driving for 20 minutes or so. Sometimes just for a moment, and other times it has stayed on. The dealer reset it once, but it went on again 20 minutes later.

Is this serious? What should she do?

It doesn't shut it down, it merely lets the driver know there is a problem and that the system may not work or could deploy unexpectedly

Yes Mic but thats not what you said, you said " > > > the air big lite means there is a fault code and when it's on the system is shut down. And I said it could make the system not work or deploy unexpectedly.

Yes that would be a fault code that WOULD cause the air bag{s) to not deploy The clock spring is the main wire leading to the drivers side air bag, if those wires were cut or broken it would not deploy, But the What Mic said was when the lite is on it shuts the system down, not true
