Been having serious issues with the power on turning my SUV on sounds like it's sparking hard under hood and also when the truck runs it jerks and when I go to start it up it tells me something about the air bags the alternator reads 14.0 volts then drops to 12.5 volts sometimes it stays there new battery has been put in a gold top and still problems are not going away this should be a recall cause I don't want to have to worry about if it could catch on fire or worst

The air bag light comes on when the drivers seat is moved back and forth. To get the light to go back off I have to wiggle the wiring harness and connector under the drivers seat.

My service airbag warning comes up on display. Sometimes it stays on, sometimes it goes off and on like when I hit a bump. I have had it serviced and fixed and they say the clip under the passenger seat was disconnected. A few months later I was vacuuming my car out and as soon as I was done, the light came on again. I had it fixed again. Like literally took 2 seconds for them to clip it together and it cost over $70. It came disconnected again, had it fixed, now the warning light is on again, and I am annoyed! Can we get a recall?? I'm sick of this! It has happened when the car is stationary and moving. I should be able to vacuum my vehicle or grab a piece of mail that has slid under the seat without having the clip coming disconnected!

My "check air bag" light has gone on intermittently while driving for over a year. It is now permanently illuminated, and has been for the past 4-5 months. My vehicle is not covered by the recall on this issue. I am nervous that the airbag will not work if I am in an accident.

Takata recall, my airbag light comes on and goes off whenever it wants. Sometimes it with come on and stay on for days to months at a time, I took it back to the chevy dealership where I purchased it from. I paid for the diagnostic and for them to fix it and it stood off for a few weeks and came back on and when I called and told them that my airbag light came back on they to me to make an appointment to get a 3rd diagnostic and for me to paid again I refused and I am just dealing with the light coming and going off on its own. I have to hold my key in the ignition in the forward position being cranked for about 4-5sec just for my SUV to turn on and asked the dealership why and they couldn't give me an answer and just shrugged there shoulders with no answers. And when I put my give my SUV a little bit of throttle it hesitates a bit and when I happen to floor it being stuck in the snow it studder and hesitated for about a sec or two before it reacted

Air bag warning light was recalled and was supposed to be fixed. However, it began going on and off again and was fixed in june of 2017 at chevy dealership. However, it is again turning off and on again. No accidents have occurred but I am afraid if there is one that the air bags will not deploy.

Service airbag came on while driving - had it serviced a dealer which resulted in passenger side airbag warning along with the passenger sensor bell to constantly ring even with no one in the seat. I took it back to the dealer again and after them looking at the passenger side, the driver's side airbag is back on again. This light is on all the time when the keys are in the ignition. There are 75584 miles on the car.

Service air bag light illuminated about 9 months ago. The issue was reported by dealer as wire harness under the driver side that was replaced and welded. Now same issue after 9 months again (september 2017) service light come on again and dealer told me is the same issue but now is under the passenger side. My vehicle is currently under 71k miles. Really concern I had these two events. Something is wrong with the seat wire harness creating the same failure mode. What is wrong with the wire harness? Both issues were not covered by gm. They stated that only is covered under bumper to bumper limited to 36k miles. I issued a concern with gm and gave me this number to record this concern 8-3308753301 however the solution is that I need to take care since is out of warranty.

Passenger airbag is enabled when a minor weight (such as a small backpack, or laptop) is placed in the passenger seat. I first reported this when the vehicle was under warranty and the dealer refused to address it, saying that there is no weigh under which the airbag should be deactivated. I believe that this is not the case, and that a light weight activating the airbag is a significant safety issue.
