My spark has 32k miles on it. The airbag warning light comes on and code 95 (service airbags) shows on the display whenever someone is in the front passenger seat, whether the car is moving or stationary. A quick google search shows there are many cars with this same problem and gm refuses to take responsibility for an expensive repair. I wish the federal safety agency would look into this and mandate a repair at gm's expense.

The code 95 comes on when both front seats are occupied. We went to dealership and they gave us an off the wall answer about using a jelly to put on the air bag connection to fix the issue but didn't do it.we have since took it back and now they want us to pay for a new air bag system because it is faulty. The vehicle has had no accidents or air bag problems before.this is a very big safety issue that is chevy's problem not mine .according to blogs other sparks and cruzes have same issue.
