The air bag light keeps coming on intermittently as I-€™m driving saying service airbag but when you check the code nothing specific comes up. I-€™ve had mechanics look at the car and for them to guess it will cost me Thousands. And I noticed my truck is also hesitating to drive and almost feels like it-€™s going to shut down as I-€™m driving with a constant check engine light the light came on about a day after the service air bag light

The contact owns a 2016 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated that his vehicle had been involved in two accidents and that the airbags failed to deploy as needed in both accidents. In the first accident, the contact stated that while driving at a low rate of speed, a tree had fallen right in front of his vehicle. The contact was not able to stop the vehicle in time which caused him to run over the tree. The contact stated that the airbags did not deploy. The contact did not suffer any injuries and a police report was not filed. The contact had the vehicle towed to the dealer where they repaired the damage to the vehicle. The second failure occurred while the contact was at a stoplight and another vehicle on the opposite side of traffic had hit his vehicle's driver side at a high rate of speed. The air bags again did not deploy upon impact. The contact and his wife were both taken to the hospital where he was treated for whiplash to his neck and arms. After months of chronic pain, the contact also had back surgery. The contact's wife was treated for injuries to her left knee and stomach, as well as whiplash to her neck. A police report was filed at the scene. The vehicle was towed to an independent body shop for repair. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had been repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 1,000.

Passenger air bag alarm goes off when seat is empty and occasionally the passenger air bag turns off while an adult passenger is in the seat due to a faulty connector. This happens sporadically during all types of driving, idling or while parked. The concern that during an impact the faulty connector will cause the passenger side airbag to not deploy while a passenger is in the seat is highly worry some and even though Chevy is aware of the condition, they won't recall or fix the issue. Timing chain failure can cause sudden unexpected engine shutoff while driving causing a loss of control of the vehicle and sudden stalling during acceleration and deceleration leading to possible collisions as the engine shuts off with no warning. Chevy is aware of the timing chain issues in their 2.4L engines and yet hasn't issued a recall even though catrophic engine damage and probably loss of life due to loss of control collisions. Engine shutoff due to chain stretch or failure can occur as any time during driving or engine running conditions.

Front passenger seat airbag sensor will not activate safety system when I, as a 120 lb adult, place a medically necessary cushion (to alleviate back and hip pain) between myself and the seat, thus cancelling out the benefits of this safety system when the vehicle is in motion. I am at risk when riding in this General Motors vehicle. Please require GM to recall and correct this defect soonest and associate my complaint with all other similar complaints on file with your Agency.
