Hi there,

To help narrow down both problems, I would start with a scan as this will identify the SRS fault and possibly the trans fault as well, any SRS work should be carried out by a qualified tech as serious injury can result if not handled correctly.

will need to have the restraint system scanned to retrieve the trouble code(s) that are stored since the airbag light is on. As for the tranny issue, there may be a sensor or solenoid not working properly preventing tranny from shifting.
