As with every other saturn sky out there the passenger seat airbag sensor has failed. As everyone else has said , you guys are full of it ,you will wait until people die with this issue. It is a safety problem step up and recall it.
2007 Saturn Sky airbags complaints
Page 5 of 9: complaints 101 to 130 of 234, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Typical engineered problems @ low mileage: seat air bag sensor, dash info lights, check engine light and extremely noisy AC system. A recall would be nice, but the car is an orphan. (a discontinued vehicle, with little support.) safe at any speed ?
Sometimes the passenger airbag does not turn on when there is an adult person seated in the seat. Also has an oil leak at the differential.
As I was thedriving down the highway at 65 MPH, the airbag light came on. The service airbag message came up and I noticed that the passenger airbag on/off light would alternate from on/off. The passenger was just sitting there in the seat properly. After I stopped another passenger got in and still stayed illuminated.
My passenger side airbag sensor is faulty. It then shuts down the entire airbag system. Once the passenger presence sensor fails, it stores a code in the SRS module and lights up the 'service air bag' light. The airbag on the passenger side becomes disabled once this light is illuminated. This can pose an increased risk of injury to the passenger in an accident. The same problem has occurred in other cars with the airbag sensor brand/type - including the cadillac cts- these were recalled. Why has the saturn not been recalled if it is the same part? Please look into this issue before people get hurt or killed!
My wife's 2007 saturn sky passenger service air bag indicator and air bag warning light is on and stays on. I was told unless this is fixed (for a cost of about $900.00) the air bag will not deploy in case of an accident. The gm dealer that looked at the sky said "passenger seat sensor is out again." not good that gm does not care if young kids that ride with their grand mother gets fatally injured in a car accident. (no air bag will deploy). Maybe a gm executive would care more if one of their kids or grand kids would be riding in a car that has a faulty air bag issue. This issue is happening on most of the saturn sky vehicles. Just give a recall - do the right thing!
Takata recall.the air bag service light came on. My vehicle has that device and it is not included on the recall. I would like to know if and when this will be added to the recall. If not I need to know the reason why not for my lawyer. I understand its going to cost me $1000.00 to replace their defective device. Please let me know. Thank you.

Service airbag message displays on the dic, and confirmation from onstar that code b0081 is present, meaning the passenger airbag will not deploy because the seat sensor has malfunctioned. This is a known and common issue with saturn skys, and my vehicle has only 9023 miles - almost all driven with no passenger the cost to fix this issue as shown from others who've had this problem is over $1000.
Passenger presence system has failed prematurely. Issue has caused air bag light to activate and has also caused airbags to be disabled.
Passenger seat airbag sensor failed. Vehicle was stationary. Warning on dash.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 saturn sky. While operating the vehicle, the air bag sensor light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the passenger seat sensor was faulty. The seat cushion was replaced and the failure was remedied. Approximately 12,000 miles later, the failure recurred. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 33,000.
I got the check airbag. Took to chevy dealership. Repalaced under " good will". 33k on my odometer. 46k on my odometer it is back again called gm. They know it is defective but because a qtyy of people have not die yet they are doing a recall
My passenger pressance control module came on after my passenger leaned forward in my car while at a stop light. It now comes on everytime I start my car whether I have a passenger or not.
The passenger presence system module has gone out. I have done all circuit testing, research and priced the repairs. I am a service technician of 6 years and have worked for gm for the first 3. Almost every saturn sky I know of has had the pps module fail, and we have many reports and pictures of the passenger air bag not deploying during collisions, sometimes the driver does not either. This is close to a $1000 fix, considering the price of the pps module by itself is $500+ from the dealer. My vehicle was stationary, and in motion, city and highway when this failure occured. The pps module does not recognize a passenger in the car and therefore does not turn the passenger air bag on. The first time it did it, 10 minutes into driving, it turned on and the air bag light went off. A few minutes later it cycled back off, lit up the air bag light and said, 'service air bag,' on the dic. It cycled one more time to on, and then back off a few minutes later and now stays off. The entire time it cycled back and forth there was a passenger in the car. As a technician and a car enthusiast, I am well aware that cars have to be maintained and expensive parts will be bought over the years, but the overwhelming evidence that there is a problem with the saturn sky's air bag system is concerning and I would hope, with as many recalls have gone out over the last several years, that the federal safety agency, and gm, would do something about it before someone gets hurt like people did in the cobalt ignition recalls. I also have a cobalt, so I know all about that as well. Thank you for your time, and I hope someone will actually investigate this instead of ignoring it and people get hurt. If it was your own vehicle, you would be alarmed as well. Also, there is concern that the 2005-07 cadillac cts airbag recall was the same part number used in the 2007 sky, possibly 07-10. I do not have proof of that, yet.
My passenger pressance control module came on after my passenger leaned forward in my car while at a stop light. It now comes on everything I start my car whether I have a passenger or not. My local gmc quote 889 to fix this and even he said that's pretty expensive (note that the quoted price included labor).
Passenger airbag presence switch failed which is common among owners of this same vehicle. Great expense to repair. Gm should recall as it is so prevalent before a fatality occurs.
The passenger side airbag sensor failed in my 2007 saturn sky. The car has approximately 27k miles and failed when my 7 year old son sat in the seat as we were getting ready to leave on errands. The cost to fix the sensor is prohibitively expensive and is occuring more and more frequently in this family of cars. This causes the airbag not to function with a passenger in the car. In the event of a wreck the airbag not deploying could cause the fatality of the passenger.
The passenger air bag sign says off can not reset,
Passenger side airbag indicator does not detect person sitting in passenger seat. My guess is that it has a faulty sensor.
Passenger airbag does not respond to whether someone is sitting in the seat and the airbag light is on on dash.
Service air bag warning appears on dash with no passenger in the vehicle. The warning appears every time I start the car. When a passenger is in the vehicle the passenger air bag indicator always reads "off".
Car indicated that the air bags were not functioning
Passenger side air bag seat sensor defective
The airbag sensor shuts off. Used to be periodic but now appears to be permanently off. Started happening right after recall repaired on the ignition switch.
The passenger presence sensor has failed in my vehicle. Any passenger in the car faces added risk if an accident were to occur. It is prohibitively costly (my estimate from the dealership is $800) to do this repair. Given the frequency of this identical failure across this vehicle platform, I find it to be a manufacturer's defect and request their assistance.
Air bag light on all the time passenger seat sensor defective
Just driving out of parking lot and service airbag light illuminated. It appears as though a very significant number of other pontiac solstice and saturn sky owners share this problem and it is apparently a $1000 fix for a known design defect. This should be a recall.
Service air bag warning appeared on dash with no passenger in the vehicle while driving down the highway. The warning appears every time I start the car. When a passenger is in the vehicle the passenger air bag indicator always reads "off".
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 saturn sky. Immediately after starting the vehicle, the air bar light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The technician diagnosed that the air bag module was defective and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 36,000.
Car states air bag passenger not working. No one will help
