Indicates a problem with the airbag system. It probably won't work when you need it, or worse, it might pop when you DON'T need it. Seriously, get it checked.
Yes, but it will not pass a code inspection and is unsafe.
In most states any installed light has to work. All the lights normally on your car from the factory must work plus any aftermarket safety light such as fog lamps need to be in working order.
In Pennsylvania, the odometer does not have to be in working condition to pass a vehicle inspection. However, the vehicle must meet safety and emissions standards. If the odometer is not functioning, it’s advisable to disclose this information, as it may affect the vehicle's resale value or warranty. Always check with your local inspection station for specific requirements.
Yes, in many jurisdictions, the odometer must be functional to pass a vehicle inspection. A working odometer ensures accurate mileage reporting, which is important for safety and resale value.

The airbag light indicates that the system has detected a fault with the airbag system. You'll need to take the vehicle to an authorized repair facility and have the airbag system diagnosed. I highly recommend that you NOT attempt this work yourself. Airbags are extremely sensitive, and even a small static discharge can cause release of the airbag. Airbags are expensive and untimely discharges are potentially dangerous.
