The airbag light came on in my camaro indicating that there was something wrong with the passenger side airbag. I took it to the jim ellis chevrolet dealership on peachtree industrial blvd in atlanta, ga and they informed me that the seat sensor that determines if the passenger side airbag is on or not had deteriorated and needed to be replaced. The risk i ran was the airbag not deploying in the event of an accident…

Air Bags · Electrical System
A electrical fuse short has caused the passenger airbag to no longer activate/ turn on when a passenger is in the front seat. Thus, when a passenger is in the seat, the air bag will not deploy. Both the fuse and the module are required to be replaced. No damage or change was done to the vehicle to cause the shortage in the electrical system. *tr

With no one sitting in the passenger seat, i turned the car on and the passenger airbag light flashed on and off. The drivers panel airbag light was flashing. It would go off with some turns off the car. Left or right didn't matter. This went on for a few months. If someone sat in the seat they would have to move around for the sensor to pick up they were in the seat. The airbag light in the drivers panel eventually…

For the past three years there has been a tear in the top of the dash on the passenger side and it appears to be something under the dash is pushing up to create the slit in the dash. I am concerned that it is the airbag and i do not know if it is getting ready to go off on its own or exactly what is going on with it as it is growing. The slit or tear is aprox. 4 inches long and the bump up is to the right of it. *tr
