NHTSA Complaint #10373788 — 2006 CHEVROLET COBALT

MY CHEVY COBALT 2006, HAS HAD THE ISSUE WITH THE EMERGENCY AIR BAG LIGHTING UP AND SAYING IT IS OFF AND I GET THE MESSAGE THAT THE "AIR BAG NEEDS TO BE SERVICED". I HAVE LESS THAN 45 THOUSAND MILES. AROUND JUNE 2010, MY MOTHER AND I WERE IN THE CAR AND WE WERE ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN WE HEARD THE BEEPING SOUND AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT TURNED ON, MEANING THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WAS OFF. IT IS SUPPOSE TO TURN ON AUTOMATICALLY, BUT HAS NOT. EVERY TIME WE START THE CAR THE BEEPING SOUND STARTS AND THE PASSENGER SIDE HAS NO AIRBAG PROTECTION. I HAVE NOTICED THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE WHO HAVE THE CHEVY COBALT HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. *TR
