“Service airbags screen keeps popping up on dashboard. I've noticed many others with a Pontiac G5 2007 or chevy cobalt have the same issue. When the light is on, I was told by a dealership, that the airbags will not deploy. The passenger seat doesn't register anyone sitting on the seat even when someone is sitting and buckled up.”
