The vehicle involved is a Chevrolet Silverado 1500. During a collision, the vehicle sustained a front-left (driver-side) impact which caused it to spin and subsequently strike the rear. Despite the severity of the initial impact and secondary rear collision, the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS), including the front and side airbags, did not deploy. The failure of the airbag system increased the risk of injury to all occupants, including a minor child. Without deployment of the front or side airbags during a front-left impact and secondary rear collision, occupants were exposed to direct impact forces that airbags are designed to help mitigate. There were no airbag or SRS warning lights, dashboard messages, or other indications of a malfunction prior to the collision. The concern regarding the airbag system arose only after the incident occurred. Following the collision, the vehicle was inspected by law enforcement and insurance representatives, and documentation is available. The issue has not been reproduced, as it occurred during the collision event.

Purchased new, within a couple of days the SRS supplemental restraint system light came on the info center in dash and would flash on and off with the airbag light on (red) it would do this for 15-30 seconds and then "reset" and then lights would go off. Was inconsistent but scared my wife, so I took the truck by the dealer and they said it was not a hard code in the system and may be a bug in the system and keep an eye on it...well a few more days after it finally set a check engine light hard code and was taken to the dealer the next day. Found out if the light comes on the air bags are not activated, nice one gm. So after 3 days they changed the clock spring in the steering column and then find 3 hard codes for engine misfires. All before the 1st oil change...come on man this is 2021 so while its in the 2nd time the guy has to order the part they dent the door and scratch the paint and now it back for 2 more weeks for paint and body and infotainment system issues updates poor quality and headaches. But wife still feels unsafe with the air bag failure issues.

The air bag light and service restraint message came up constantly, it seem like it would self clear, then come right back. Truck had only 250 miles on it when it started, it is still at the dealer waiting for parts. They told me it was because of corrosion (in a brand new truck)
