Consumer Description

SRS WARNING CAME ON. HAD FAULT CODE. CALLED CHEVY DEALER AND THEY SAID I WOULD NEED A NEW AIRBAG. I RESEARCHED AND FOUND THAT GM DOES KNOW ABOUT THIS AND EVEN PUT OUT A TSB. IT IS A CONNECTOR TO THE AIRBAG ITSELF LOCATED IN THE LEFT KICK PANEL. THE FIX IS TO CLEAN THE CONNECTOR OR REPLACE IT. NO NEW AIRBAG IS NEEDED BUT IT DID REOCCUR ABOUT A YEAR LATER. RECLEANED AND OK AGAIN. THIS IS A SAFETY ITEM AND SHOULD BE A RECALL. SINCE GM KNEW IT I MUST ASSUME THAT NHTSA KNEW IT ALSO. I CAN SEE WHERE A LOT OF PEOPLE WOULD NOT FIX THIS AND JUST DRIVE LIKE THIS SINCE A LOT OF TECHNICIANS THINK YOU NEED A NEW AIRBAG WHEN IT IS IN FACT POOR WIRING BY GM. *TR
