Reported on Sept 09, 2011
| 1. PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS NOT WORKING WHEN MY WIFE SITS IN SEAT--LIGHT COMES ON AIR BAG BAGS OFF ! 09/ 09/ 11 2. WE TOOK CAR TO DEALER ( O'RIELLY CHEVY , 6160 EAST BROADWAY , TUCSON , AZ. 85711, PH: 520-571-2270 ) DID NOT FIX PROBLEM ! A DEALER CLAIMS BAGS WORK FINE AS LONG AS MY WIFE DOESN'T USE HER CUSHION !!! 3. LAST DEALER VISIT WAS 03 / 16/ 12, TO NO AVAIL. NO RESOLUTION !!!! MY WIFE HAS A BAD BACK, 4 VERTEBRA LOWER BACK OUT OF ALIGNMENT ! MUST USE A DONUT CUSHION ! DEALER TELLS US, THAT'S THE WAY IT IS !!! I DON'T BELIEVE THAT. WE HAD TO RENT ANOTHER VEHICLE WHILE OURS WAS IN FOR PAINT !! WE RENTED A CHEVY MALIBU, THREE DAYS, MY WIFE USED HER CUSHION. YEP, YOU GOT IT THE AIR BAGS WORKED FINE ALL TIME ( WAS A 2011 ) MY PROBLEM IS THIS : PEOPLE HAVE DISABILITIES, THEY IN SOME CASES HAVE TO USE AIDES ! IF THE AIRBAGS WORK IN ANOTHER CHEVY, WHY DO THEY NOT WORK IN OUR EQUINOX ???? FROM A QUALITY ASSURANCE STANDPOINT, THIS IS NOT RIGHT, IN MY VIEW, SENSORS ARE NOT POSITIONED PROPERLY ! THANKS FOR YOUR TIME, *JB | |
