The contact owns a 2016 Chevrolet Equinox. When the vehicle was started, the passenger side air bag warning indicator illuminated, which was a safety concern. The vehicle was taken to the dealer (weseloh Chevrolet, 5335 paseo del norte, carlsbad, ca 92008) where it was diagnosed that the air bag sensor failed and needed replacement. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified and offered no assistance. The failure mileage was 65,000. The VIN was not available.

Equinox

  • 788 miles
Front passenger seat airbag sensor will not activate safety system when I, as a 120 lb adult, place a medically necessary cushion (to alleviate back and hip pain) between myself and the seat, thus cancelling out the benefits of this safety system when the vehicle is in motion. I am at risk when riding in this General Motors vehicle. Please require GM to recall and correct this defect soonest and associate my complaint with all other similar complaints on file with your Agency.
