Consumer Description

THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER AIR BAG WILL NOT COME ON WHEN SOMEONE SITS IN THE SEAT. I GET A SERVICE AIR BAG SYSTEM ON THE DRIVER INFO CENTER. TOOK TO DEALER WAS TOLD COMPUTER SHOWS CODES B0081 AND B0074. WAS TOLD PASSENGER PRESENCE SYSTEM, NAMELY THE SEAT SENSOR WAS BAD AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. REPAIR ESTIMATED AT $1100.00. THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAINT IN GM VEHICLES. THE VEHICLE IS DESIGNED TO HAVE THE AIRBAG DEPLOY DURING A COLLISION CONSIDERING THE USE OF SAFETY BELTS AND DEFORMATION OF THE VEHICLE'S STRUCTURE. SERVICE AIR BAG SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON WHEN EVER THE IGNITION IS TURNED TO THE ON POSITION. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF ANYONE OR ANYTHING IS IN/ON THE SEAT, OR IF VEHICLE IS STANDING STILL OR IN MOTION.
