I've definitely noticed the same thing on my '03 GT with about 49k miles. For approx the last 6 months, after I start the car, the airbag light stays on for about 7 seconds and then goes off and usually a chime sounds as well. This happens most every time, if not every time. This is a new, different behaviour of the airbag lite (that is, it didn't do this until about 6 months ago) so something has changed to cause this.
I recently installed Stage 1 (which means I had a complete PCM changeout) and it did not affect the airbag light staying on, so it's definitely not PCM-related.
I checked the codes (by turning the ignition key On-Off-On-Off-On) and there are none. Cruise control and the horn work just fine.
Not sure what to do about it, and I guess I'm just hoping it's a instrumentation problem and not one with the airbag itself. But since I hate taking my car to a dealer, I'm just living with it.
