Cavalier 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission

The vehicle was undergoing repair for a minor vehicle accident that occurred on 11/11/04. It was determined that the vehicle had a previous accident and the airbags had been previously removed without being replaced. Diagnostics on the airbag module showed that the airbags had been deployed and were missing. The airbag dash warning indicator also has been disabled somehow. None of these deficiencies were reported at the time of the vehicle purchase. It is uncertain when the original repair was made and by whom. The accident on 11/11/04 was not severe enough for the airbags to deploy. No injuries resulted from the missing airbags.
