In June 2014 I returned my 2008 Cobalt to reliable Chevrolet in springfield, mo for the ignition switch recall. The" service air bag" light had been on for the past several months. I had contacted a Chevrolet dealer service department and inquired about my concerns. I was advised "there was no service air bag" procedures that were serviceable on the air bags. When I took my vehicle to the Chevrolet dealer to have the ignition recall performed, I specifically asked about the service air bag light and was advised there was no recall on air bags. I have seen recall information on the local news concerning a recall that included the air bag. Can you please advise if there is a recall concerning the air bag as this is a sincere concern for my wife and myself.

My "service air bag" message came on today while driving and the air bag light is now illuminated on my dash panel. Came online to find out what the problem is and apparently it's a widely known issue with the Chevy Cobalt. I took it to the dealership but they want a lot of money to fix this safety problem. GM even issued a technical service bulletin about it but my car is out of warranty. Isn't this a safety issue that should be a recall?

My 21 year old sons car is on the recall 14V047 and 14V171. I got a letter several months back that it was on recall and of course it is on the news. I got 2nd letter yesterday. When I called lakeside Chevrolet in rockwall I was given a vm for these recalls and they said they would order the part and it could take up to 90 days. My concern is 2 years ago this was a recall. We went to jupiter Chevrolet in garland and they said oh no ignition is fine its his key. At that time was a "possible recall". they made him a new key and charged him $39. At that time when he went in you had to shake column around to get key to work. I am now thinking with all the deaths shouldn't that car be recalled and shouldn't they be hurrying to get them fixed instead of waiting 90 day. Please help with this situation.
