5 hours later, no word from the dealer.

Probably, just getting back from "test drive"

Fixed. Apparently something had come unhooked under the passenger seat. I looked all over the damn place and didn't see anything unhooked.

Thankyou. To the dealer I go.

Back from the dealer. It was a drivers seat belt tensioner. Replaced under warranty. Done.

So it failed the pre-tensioner readiness check during start..

Interesting video. I did not know this would be involved in airbag diagnostics, but it's fixed.

I don't know how/what was tested. Just what I was told. Didn't ask questions; lights out, didn't cost me $$.

It must be nice to have dealers that can actually fix something.

My local dealer is completely clueless about everything. They would need it for a week just to MISDIAGNOSE the airbag light, then it would take another 2 weeks for the part to come in. They wouldn't call - I would have to call. Then I'd drop if off, their tech would be sick, then they would install the wrong part, still have the problem, scratch my truck, on and on.

Complete idiots here.

I was concerned about them having it on Friday. My experience is they don't finish the work and keep for the weekend. But this wasn't a 3 day weekend, so I got lucky and it was out by noon.
