Hi @plm ,
Depending on your location of course, there doesn’t seem to be a recall for airbag defects on a 2010 Kia Sorrento.
Here are the recalls for the UK for the vehicle and year
For the USA you need to enter the VIN number to find out.
Here is the only recall for Australia for that year model.
Just search for recalls (insert country) to find information applicable to your location.
There is also this Global list. The Kia Sorrento does get a mention, but not for that year and none are related to airbags
Air bags can be dangerous to work on as they have to be rendered safe beforehand. You don’t want them deploying whilst you’re trying to find out what the problem is. It may be wiser to let a dealer find and fix the problem.

Hi, I am not expert but I would like you to suggest something. f you car model is in the recall list try calling the car show room or the company service center. If not The airbag light problem I think you might have to go to the service center and get it fixed and I am guessing it should be just a small software error (but might not be cheap).
Or
There can be fault in the wiring. Either ways if your car is still in warranty you may get it fixed.
You can try to check of there is an error in the system by using OBD - II Bluetooth dongle but you still have to go to the service center to fix that error.
Every time you try to start the car please wait till all the lights except for the parking (!) and battery are gone and the start the car. This way there will be less chances that the on board computer in the car has no error or system failures.
Cheers

I've tried to do an internet search on the information given above re 2010 Kia Sorento recall on airbag light switches but cannot find it. Are such recalls published in one data set for all countries?
