    The warning light and message to "service airbag" illuminates when starting vehicle. The light remains on whether someone is seated in the passenger side or not. Replacing the battery did not solve the problem. I'm not sure if the system is operating correctly or not.

    I recently noticed a hairline crack on my dashboard and believed it was due to normal wear and tear. Requested a company to repair crack, but representative unable to repair crack due to location being above the airbag. Upon future investigation i have discovered that other camaro owners have same hairline crack in the exact location on their dashboards. For the crack to occur in the same location on different…

    Vehicle has had a code of p008 intermittently then permanently since 68000 miles, it is now at 99,500 miles. The code relates to timing chain stretching which is causing engine misfire.

    Went to get an oil change last week. After the oil change, my "service air bag" light is on. Talked with the mechanic and he showed me everything he had touched on my vehicle. Took my car to the chevy dealership in aberdeen md and they said that an oil change would not interfere with the airbag sensor. One of the service guys told me it is normally a wire that needs to be changed. They scheduled me for an…

    My vehicle has 40,970 miles on it and the passenger side air bag sensor failed and it needed to be replaced. I would be able to understand the driver side air bay sensor failing with 40,000 miles on it, but not the passenger side air bag sensor which has less miles on it. My mechanic told me that this has been a problem that chevy is aware of and that they have not made any changes to the replacement air bag sensors…

    The air bag light and alarm came on and off in the passenger seat when some one is sitting in it, and the service air bag light is on all the time, so apparently the passenger air bag is not on or will not deploy in case of an accident, so apparently the sensor in the seat is not working and in doing some research on this problem i have found this to be a major complaint for this model camaro and i hear it is very…

    Around 60,000 miles the "check air bag" light came on. The passenger seat air bag comes on and goes off during travel. If i was to have an accident while the bag happens to have turned itself off, i'm afraid a much greater injury will occur. Dealer says its not under warranty and will cost around $1,000 to replace the computer board in passenger seat. I believe this affects other chevrolet models as well. Chevrolet…

My vehicle only has about 64k miles on it, and it started happening at about 50k. I have yet had it repaired as i can not afford to pay al;most $1500 to $1900 to repair this.
