“Service air bag notice displayed, red air bad warning idiot light on and the passenger air bag indicator light shows off even though a passenger was in the seat. Tried powering the car off and on with same result. This is a major safety issue is the passenger is not protected while riding in the vehicle. I have since read that many reports of the same issue have been reported and no safety recalls have been issued.”
NHTSA complaint #10745881, filed 2015-08, 21,602 miles“My Solstice is part of the ignition recall. Passenger air bag sensor light has been on since aug. 2014. Ignition replaced today 10/8/14. Dealership says that I have a faulty airbag sensor in the passenger seat and that neither side airbag will deploy should I have an accident. First I'm told it will cost me $800 to replace. My response was that I would be contacting gmc about this. Then I'm told to hold off that they would put their gmc calculator on it and let me know what gmc says. A few minutes later I get a call saying that gmc would cover $500 of the $800 charge. …”
