Default recall

so when i heard of the recall, i noticed that my car wasn't giving me any passenger airbag off lights or anything. when i took it to the dealership thursday for 5k service, the dude said they were gonna fix the recall problem and i didn't think anything of it cause it's not broken and whatever they do won't hurt it anyways.

so it's been fine since thursday. the car felt much better with the oil change. today however, i'm driving this dude home after work and the airbag light keeps coming on and going off (this is a 2 minute ride to his house), and the car seems shakey for some reason. i feel a really mild stutter in the throttle and i hear weird, albeit barely noticeable noises coming from the engine. i let it heat up for a good 10 minutes while i was waiting for him to get off his shift, so it's not driving it cold that's the problem. it just felt totally different. can anyone diagnose this problem?
