Consumer Description

IN OCTOBER 2016 MY 2006 CHEVROLET AVEO LS HATCHBACK'S BATTERY DIED, UNABLE TO JUMPSTART ANYMORE. I REPLACED THE BATTERY AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE DASH HAS ILLUMINATED SOLID SINCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN AN ACCIDENT. THE GM DEALERSHIP I TOOK IT TOO WASN'T ABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE. THE VEHICLE HAD 130,000 MILES AT THE TIME THE BATTERY DIED AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT THE TIME THE AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED. I NOW DO NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO RIDE WITH ME BECAUSE I'M AFRAID THAT THE AIRBAGS WILL MALFUNCTION.
