Pontiac Solstice Air Bags Safety Report | Mar 01, 2014
Reported on Mar 01, 2014
| THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH PANEL THE AIRBAG SENSOR FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE DOES NOT CHANGE FROM ON TO OFF. IT ALWAYS REMAINS LIT OFF. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE ISSUE AND THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS RELATING TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SEAT SENSOR FAILING. THE PART ALONE IS OVER $300 AND TO HAVE A DEALER REPAIR IS OVER $700. REGARDLESS, THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND IS WIDESREAD ON PONTIAC SOLTICE AND SATURN SKY MODELS. GM HAS YET TO ISSUE RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE. WAHT ARE THEY WAITING FOR? THIS SEEMS SIMILIAR IN NATURE TO THE CURRENT RECALL FOR THE IGNITON SWITCH WHERE UP TO 300 PEOPLE HAVE DIED. THE ISSUE DOES NOT CLEAR ITSELF AND IS ALWAYS ON THE DASH PANEL WARNING SYSTEM | |
