2007 Chevrolet Equinox Seats Problems

“A few months ago, I took my car into the dealer to diagnose a check airbag light. $122 later, my vehicle was found to have a faulty passenger presence module. I was quoted over $1000 in repairs and given no other options.

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.
