    Air Bags

    During event(s), vehicle was in motion and stopped. When a passenger is sitting in the passenger front seat, the air bag does not turn on. At least the light for the air bag stays in the off position. This happens no matter what. This could have been happening for a very long time, i just now noticed it.

    Air Bags

    The airbags in the passenger side of my car are faulty. They only say they are on sporadically. The problem has been ongoing and proven to be an issue while at the dealership. Gm is not following protocol with this issue and many other ones. The dealership will no longer work on the car so now i am driving a car where the airbags may or may not be working. *tr
