1998 Chevrolet Venture Air bags Problems

“Van was traveling at approx 65 MPH..ford quad cab truck pulled out in front of me..I locked the brakes, some skid marks down the highway, and completely broadsided the truck. Damage to truck was on driver side door, and front corner panel. Several of trucks airbags deployed. Impact was at a high speed. Injuries to myself and passenger, neck, shoulder, knee, wrist, ankle, not fatal, thank goodness. Passenger of truck, injuries unknown. Truck was at fault in accident.”

“My 1998 Chevrolet Venture was in an accident sustaining major damage. There was a direct hit to the right headlamp with the pole and the van ended up landing on the driver's side skidding on the road. None of the 4 airbags deployed. Has there been a recall on them or has there been any other complaints about this vehicle?”

“Air bag warning lights came on and stayed on. The consumer stated the air bag light illuminated shortly after the vehicle was purchased. The dealer repaired it, however two weeks later the light illuminated again. The consumer was told the air bag module on the passenger side was bad. Also the vehicle had brake problems.”

“Airbag light comes on indicating a problem with the airbag. Chevy diagnosed and repaired on six separate occasions over the next four years, but in each case the problem returned within a month or two. The airbag has not worked properly since this date, according to the indicator light, except for short time periods after repair. We have asked chevy to find a permanent solution with no success.”

“While driving at 40 MPH vehicle was invovled in a frontal collision. Upon impact, none of the frontal air bags deployed. Driver and passenger sustained minor bumps and brusies.”
