HELP! Airbag System Service Required?!!

Hey guys, I seriously need some advice here. Last week, my 2011 RA threw this error message in my face when I started it up: "Airbag System Service Required." I took it to the dealership and this is their conclusion:
"Found DTC B223D OCM and B1BA3 driver's seat track position sensor fault. Found
both codes are due to communication error. Found aftermarket wiring attached to
ETAC's wiring. Suspect possible aftermarket wiring affecting communication."

They cleared the error code and said it -shouldn't- happen again. Well, guess what? The same error message pops up everytime after I push the driver's seat all the way back and turn the engine off. The dealership seems to think the aftermarket wiring originated from my AEM UEGO WB but I've had the WB for like 5 months now and I've never seen that error message before up until last week. Has anyone else experience this with their AEM WB? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

A wideband O2 is totally standalone. There is no wiring that goes or should go near anything air bag related. You sir need a 2nd opinion.

Would you suggest that I take it to another dealership or to my tuner shop?

Why not inspect the seat track your self then? It sounds like a sensor or wiring problem. Maybe something is getting pinched.

Definitely check it out VIA the dealership system. Airbags aren't something to mess around about in any way. Especially the way this car crumples.
