“Air bag light stays on. Was told passenger side air bag problem are common on the 2008 chevy AVEO. I use this vehicle for a commuter car. Light came on around 25,000 miles. Hardly ever have a passenger in this car. Chevy needs to fix this problem. By the incredible large amount of complaints about the passenger side airbag, it must be a manufacturing defect.”
