The airbag indicator light on the dash of the vehicle periodically lights up indicating a fault with the system. The car was checked by a dealer who could find no issue. The light resets if you cycle the vehicle on/off, but the problem returns randomly when driving the vehicle. The airbag system disabling itself without warning puts the driver at risk of not having the system deploy under conditions it should. The system resetting the warning to every on/off cycle is also misleading because unless you experience the behavior there is no reliable way to know that there is an issue with the SRS system on the vehicle.

Airbag warning light by model year
What owners say
The airbag warning light comes on when there is only the driver in the vehicle. When there are two people in the vehicle the airbag warning light goes off. I have had this checked at an independent Corvette mechanic and he says the parts are very expensive and not available at this time. I was wondering if you could tell me if this is a problem that has been reported by other Chevy owners? Where can I go to get parts? There has been no injury or accident. I would like for my airbags to work properly. In case of an accident lack of airbags could be a problem.
The airbag light comes on for no apparent reason.
Airbag warning light comes on and off intermittently. After reading all over and trying to figure what's wrong it appears to be a wide spread issue. It happens at random times, slow speed around town or driving at highway speeds. What I don't like is it disable's the airbag when the airbag when on. Thank you
Depending on the position of the drivers seat the airbag indicator on the dash will indicate that the airbags are disabled. In the event of an accident if the airbags did not deploy it could result in serious injury or death. No event has yet to happen for my vehicle, but I feel unsafe knowing that the airbags have a defect that may result in them not being deployed.
Dealers refuse to repair vehicle stating the extended special coverage has expired. Airbag light will not shut off due to wire harness problem and gm knows about the problem. I tried to get the car repaired but local dealer did not have the parts. And the coverage expired. . I receive the notice in may 2016. My car met the mileage standard, less than 120 k miles and within 10 years of ownership.
Airbag light on constantly. Never turns off. So airbag is not working. This is a life or death situation that is gms responsibility. I have researched it and it is a very widely known problem that they refuse to repair. How many deaths is too many?
Airbag light on dash turns on and off intermittently while the car is in motion. Speed does not effect the problem. Problem reported to gm dealer and they replaced drivers seat belt tensioner after about 100 miles of travel problem returned. Am very concerned air bags will not function in the event of an accident
The air bag light illuminates intermittently at all speeds and all weather conditions.
The air bag warning light comes on and goes off intermittently as you drive. Speed really has no effect on when. Has come on/off as low as 20mph or as high as 80mph.
Air bag light goes on intermittently.
The airbag light comes on often. I have found that this is a very common problem for all c6 corvettes (2005 through 2013). The problem is the connector under the drivers seat. If it is zip tied tightly by the owner, the light will go out for a while. When it comes back on, the zip tie must be replaced to get the connections to work again. Bad connector should be recalled in my opinion. Worried that when the light come on that the air bags are disabled. Very dangerous.
