Dealer repair gone bad.... 1993

I own a 1993 240 Volvo Wagon. I took my car into the Volvo dealer for repair because the SRS light had been on for at least a year. The dealer said I needed a new airbag. They replaced it, but the SRS light would not stay off. After three return visits to the dealer they replaced the SRS harness. Now the SRS light stays off.

After the airbag was replaced -- the first visit -- the cruise control no longer worked. By the third visit, the dealer said this was a coincidence and this coincidence will cost $1000 to fix. They said the servo motor for the cruise was bad. Considering the cruise mechanism is in the steering column, I have my doubts this is a coincidence. Is it possible they could have damaged the servo motor while replacing my airbag? Naturally I am wondering if the airbag needed to be replaced.

Thanks for any help.
