    Has anyone had the dealer checkout the spiral cable assembly in the steering column that may lose its electrical connection on the circuit controlling the driver's airbag. I am wondering if they all need to be replaced or if they are checking a serial number on the cable to see if it is an identified range before replacing. Really hate to have the dealer mess with the wiring on a 7 month old truck. I would appreciate hearing about anyone's experience on this issue. Thanks.

    Mine showed as needing to be checked, so I had them look at it alongside another install I was having done and they just said it didn't need replaced and I was good to go.

    They check the resistance of the cable from what I understand. Basically if it fails the check then they replace the cable. It is a plug n play cable...I wouldn't worry about a dealer replacing it.
