2011 Chevrolet Camaro: airbag warning light

Filed Sep 21, 2024 · Airbags, Seat belts · CA

When someone sits in the passenger seat the airbag light/alarm goes on and off. My mechanic said I would need to take it to the dealer. I called dealer and they would need to diagnose if it is the seat belt or the seat weight sensor. Can cost upwards of $900. I just can't afford that. They should recall since I've researched so many complaints on this issue.

The passenger airbag light come on the dashboard stating repairs needed & regardless if someone is sitting in the seat the passenger airbag light remains 'off' if the vehicle is moving or stationary. Today I was sitting in the passenger seat while my husband was driving, the airbag was on & all the sudden the warning sound chimes & the light went to the off position.

Around 100,000 miles my airbag light came on. The vehicle was not in an accident, the light just came on, while driving one day. Took it to the dealership and they said the airbag needs to be replaced at an expensive price. Currently riding around in a vehicle with faulty airbags for no apparent reason.

Around 60,000 miles, the "service airbag" warning was displayed alongside the airbag light on my vehicle. The warning is displaying at all speeds and whenever the vehicle is turned on. I am trying to sell the vehicle to purchase another vehicle but was told today at a local dealership that the value of my trade-in would be decreased by $2,000 due to this warning which would hamper me from being able to afford another vehicle. I am not able to afford this $2,000, so it seems as though I am driving around with a vehicle of which its airbags are not functioning. I am unsure what more I can do given there seems to be many others with unresolved concerns similar to this.

Service airbag light is on and dealer wants $99 for diagnostics and up to $700 to fix. Found out there are many complaints on this and a lawsuit so it should maybe be a recall! The car hadn't ben driven from october 1st until may 1st because it was in storage and the light came on the minute we drove it.

Service airbag randomly comes on. The service airbag light will come on then go off while the car is moving as well as parked. It will stay on for random durations which also disables the passenger side airbag. This happens in city or on highways.

I bought this car new and has about 85000 miles on it and took it in because of airbag light being on. I was told passenger present sensor needs to be replaced which causes airbag light to remain on when car is moving. This is ridiculous I looked about this claim and there are hundreds of camaros with this exact same issue. This is a $700 replacement and does not sit well with me as I've always bought chevys and not had issues before. This is a safety issue and if I have to pay $700 to fix a safety issue that was defective with this vehicle and several hundred others then this is a manufacture defect that should not fall on consumer to get it replaced. Let me know what can be done here! Thanks

I originally had trouble with the airbag sensor in 2013. I took it to my local dealer who stated they where unable to duplicate the issue. They reset the sensor and it was fine. Now with the vehicle out of warranty anytime some one sits in the passenger seat the service airbag light turns on and off the whole time I am driving. Most recently it has started turning on and off even when no one is in the seat. Returned to dealer for repair and it will be $700 plus to fix.
