Airbag light on on other 1500 years
No other 1500 model year has enough reports of airbag light on for a sheet of its own. See every 1500 year.
What this problem usually is
This is the narrower sheet inside airbag problems for the warning light itself: an airbag or SRS light that stays on, or comes and goes, with no crash involved. The light is the car saying part of the airbag system may not work when it's needed.
What got replaced
Few of these reports name the part that was replaced.
Recalls and investigations
3 recalls on the airbags cover the 2014 model year. A recall on the same system isn't always the same failure, so read the defect text.
Certain driving conditions, such as driving off-road or debris striking the vehicle may cause the roll rate sensor to trigger a fault within the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC).
The affected vehicles are equipped with side air bag inflatable curtains (SABIC) that may not fully overlap the C-pillars in the event of a vehicle crash.
The affected vehicles have a steering wheel wiring harness that may rub against the driver air bag module retainer spring.

Should you keep driving it?
This page can't tell you that. 0 of 31 reports involved a crash. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.
File your own report with NHTSA. Complaint counts are how a problem gets an investigation. How reports land on this sheet.
