2009 Chevrolet Equinox Air bags Problems

“The airbag sensor light stays on intermittently and when it does, the passenger airbag says off and notification message says service passenger airbag . Every shop I have to take it to says they see no problems, but a dealer has to take a look. This started happening in 2018 and has been happening since. I have been reading that this is problem for this model of Equinox around this time in its life. The stable track is similar. Every so often, it stops working but then most of the time is fine.”

“Service air bag appears everytime I start car. Took it to the dealer and it is going to cost over $700 to get it fixed. They told me the part was over $600. Also I had to fix it because it was illegal to leave it as it was. What I need to know, is there any recall notice that could help me? My husband and I are both retired and on a fixed income. My dealership is bachman bernard Chevrolet in greeneville, tn thank you”

“I had passed out while driving to work due to low blood sugar. The front of my vehicle crashed into a structure at approximately 55/60 MPH. None of my airbags ever deployed. I was transported to the hospital.”

“While I was driving the light on my dash told me to check air bags. It would nutmeg off. I took it to rydell Chevrolet and they told me that the switch was not working and my air bags were inoperable. They also told me that the repair was not covered and would cost me over $900.00. In was furious and spoke to Chevrolet customer service . They told me that they would talk to the dealer. They gave me $70.00 off. I will never purchase another GM product again. I still think that they should have fixed it at no charge because of the mileage on the SUV.”

“Airbag warning light on - took to mechanic yesterday and they found the following b0074 & b0081 set. Diagnosed and found passenger presence module internally failed . They told me it's a 800+ repair. Called dealer priority cheverolet in chesapeake virginia and they said to check connections below seat as they sometimes come loose. As an engineer I find it hard to believe that such a vital life saving device would have such an easy single point failure to be so easy to come loose as by simple moving the seat. When you observe the switch module below the seat it is just there dangling! …”
