Re: incident AE00013 - the airbag light came on intermitantly, took it to dealer, they couldn't find problem with it. About a mont later the Tahoe started intermitantly losing power when trying to accelerate, causing several near crashes. Took it again to the dealer that then determined the battery was leaking acid on to the airbag sensor. Had to replace the airbag sensor and battery. They charged over $700 to do so, including $89 labor just to install a new battery! about a week or so after that similar loss of power was occurring. Took Tahoe to a different chev dealer who the found alternator was now bad, which I suspect may be related to the ongoing bad battery problems.
