The air bag light turns on and off for the past 3 days. I have taken it too the dealer in my hometown and the tech there said that this is a common issue for this model and Chevy knows that its a easy and profitable one to repair. Someone please look in to this its not cool to have something like an airbag say it need service just to have them say that. The fix cost me $145.59 and it took them around 8 or 10 mins to repair it. Odd don't you think.

My airbag service required light came on in July of 2019. I took it to gosh Chevy and it was repaired under warranty. The same problem of the airbag service light reoccurred in April of 2020. I took it back to gosh Chevy and was told it was no longer under warranty and that it would cost me $150 to investigate the problem and what ever the costs involved to repair the problem would be on me. As a safety item as important as an airbag I would think checking their original repair would be covered by them.

Since August( around 08/25/19), I've been having a service air bag notifcation which I've took to the Chevrolet dealership services. I was told there were a senor to be replaced and payed for the replacement. September ( around 09/18/2019), the service air bag came on again less than a month with the same notification. I was told then there was a second senor that needed to be replaced. Here I am now in November (11/20/19) with the service air bag notifcation on my dash board again for the third time. I'm in the process of contacting Chevrolet once more about this. I reserach the recall but there is no recall for my vehicle. I'm unsure if anyone else having the same issues. The light either pop up at the start of turning on the vehicle or during the drive. Normally on the first day of notification it will go off after second crank but within 3 days will return and will not turn off. This part is not a cheap part plus adding dealership fees.

Air bag light continues to come on even after taking it to dealership to get the recall fixed. Dealership team says it is fixed but light continues to come on. I'm not sure if the maintenance team has really fixed the recall or they are just resetting the alert.

The first time my airbag light came on and stayed on for several weeks and then one day was not on. Just recently on 5/15/19 my service air bag light came on again. My car has not been in an accident at all. My windshield wiper fluid will not disperse as well wiper arm hand was replaced lines were checked and fluid in the reservoir and still no fluid available which affects visibility when anything splashing on the windshield. The service airbag light came on suddenly one day when I started up my car.
