2009 Cadillac CTS Air bags Problems

“Service air bag alert on driver information center came on intermittently from mid-april to may 24, 2018. Took to dealership 5/24/18. Dealer traced, located & repaired high resistance in right front seat side air gab circuit in seat connector at a cost of $168. Dealer said there were no open campaigns on the issue. This is a safety issue that we'd like the ntsb to investigate. As owners, we never removed the seat and, should there have been a crash, the right front passenger side air bag may not have worked.”

“The service airbag light came on. I took the car to the Cadillac dealer who said the connector under the seat was not making contact and that the pins in the connector needed to be replaced ($600). In my opinion this is a design defect as the pins in the connector loose contact as a result of the seat moving back and forth for different drivers as well as driver confort. I have no reason to believe the problem will not reappear and that in the event of an accident that the air bag will deploy properly. …”

“Driving at night my son hit ice and his Cadillac went off the road hitting a mailbox with a support made from a telephone pole, a row of mailboxes that caused his car to go airborne. The car rolled 2 times. No airbags were deployed.the driver's side was intact. The front, drivers side,passangers side and sunroof windows were shattered. He died from massive, multiple injuries.”

“Service airbag light on in vehicle, diagnosis says it is the passenger presence module. Through research, many others are having the same exact issue. The module needs to be fixed, not just replaced with another faulty module.”

“My airbag sensor on my passenger seat does not work. It cannot detect the passenger and therefore would not go off if there was an accident. I tried purchasing the item from GM by going to my local service location and was told the part is not made anymore and I cannot buy it. There is none made for my car online. I need a module to detect if a passenger is present not only for safety but to pass inspection in NJ. They offered no solution and simply told me after ten years they don’t have to make parts for a car. …”
