Airbag warning light and Service Air Bag on dash. Code B0087-00 Left Rear SIS. Replaced sensor, still getting warning. Sensor is in LR door. Research revealed possible known issue with bending fatigue from routine door open/close motion and subpar wire size/material causing wire failure. Opened wire harness at pillar and green/black wire was completely separated at typical bending point. Light blue wire was not visibly broken (insulation still intact) but the wire within was broken upon removal of insulation. These are the two wires (light blue and green/black) to the impact sensor. Please investigate GM use of substandard or undersize wiring in entire SRS system especially at bending fatigue potential failure points. Three pictures attached - one picture showing initial finding of green/black broken wire but light blue still visibly intact (insulation only), one picture showing same in close up, one picture showing both wires are not intact (light blue wire was inspected further and determined insulation intact but wire within was not intact) and insulated separated with fingernail pressure only. Wires should not fail within typical lifetime of a vehicle. Uncertain on operation of system, but could short between two wires and/or grounding cause airbag to deploy without accident/at random causing personal injury to occupants and/or an accident because of random deployment? Date of incident is when wiring issue was discovered and pictures taken upon discovery.

My car alarm keeps beeping for no reason when parked. As soon as I start the car, the airbag light goes on. The dashboard warning light says that my tire is flat; so, I changed all four tires, and it's still giving drastically inaccurate readings often. Sometimes it says that my tire is flat-- 0 pressure, and sometimes, it says that it has low pressure. My programmed radio stations keep deleting from memory. I took my car to a repair shop to find out what's going on, and they can't figure it out.
Tl* the contact owns a 2010 cadillac cts. The contact stated that the passenger seat air bag warning indicator failed to illuminate to notify the contact when the seat was occupied. The vehicle was taken to holiday chevrolet cadillac (543 2nd st, williamsburg, va 23185) where it was diagnosed that the seat needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 89,000.
Takata recall. My psgr airbag light stays on saying psgr airbag off. I saw where certain vehicles were recalled for this. They all have the same problem. Will my vehicle get in the recall or will there be future recalls
Air bag warning light indicating that passenger air bag is in need of maintenance. Advised by pine belt cadillac that there may be a malfunction and they said they cleaned the connectors. The warning code #b0014 appeared again in november indicating that the connection at the air bag had a poor connection, at which time I responded back to the dealership and was advised that I would have to replace the canister at a cost to me of $608.00. The service person said that the airbag system would not function unless this was corrected. The diagnostics alone were $116.00. This is related to safest equipment and I feel it should not be a cost to me for replcement and or repairs.
