So today I happend to notice, for the first time, that on my door jam is a factory decal with a date when my airbags should be replaced....that was 2008. :eek
Needless to say, I have not replaced any airbags, I would imagine it would be a few thousand dollar proposition.
How many have followed the maintenance of this?
How many have not and have had the misfortune of getting into an accident and testing the functionality of an expired airbag?
Wasn't there some MB campaign that cancelled the suggestion that the airbags should be changed out over some number of years? I thought that they ended up saying that the airbags are good for the life of the car and they no longer need to be changed out as they had previously suggested.
On a w124 the service life is likely 50 years+ if the cars are in the hands of enthusiasts!
