Default Need help with 2 minor problems

#1 Left side power mirror loses memory every 7-10 days and I have to reprogram it. It always creeps down to the same position even if I program fob 1 and 2 the same. Did everything manual suggests to no avail.

#2 Air bag warning light comes on in dash periodically when my wife uses the passenger seat--goes off when she exits.

I'll probably take it to the dealer next week but wanted to know if anyone else had either of these problems.

Thanks in advance.

Air bag has a plug on the side of the seat. Sometimes the plug doesn't make good contact and gives you a light. I had that happen on the driver side (that plug is under the seat at the rear) and I messed around with the plug and the intermittent light went away.

Thanks John,
I did a search and found similar responses. I'll give it whirl later. No luck on the mirror though. I can live with that one.

I haven't had the mirror issue, but from time to time the EZ out feature quits and I have to reprogram. I think it is a computer memory issue.

One thing to check is the fob. Do you use the same fob each and every time? If not, make sure you have both programmed the same.
