Simple Problem(s)...

Hairy green toads from Mars made RICHARD MEZIC say:

Dimes to donuts it's the rear cigarette lighter. Common failure,
apparently. That was the cause on my '89 100Q. The lighter socket
assembly pops out of the plastic vent housing, and you can just
unplug it.

Mileage has nothing to do with airbag sensors. I'd get someone to look
at this for you. Could be a failed sensor, or an electrical malfunction.
