Last year the air bag light went on my 2011 Silverado with 80,000 miles. I had it in a GM body shop for unrelated repair and asked them to diagnose it. They connected their reader and could not find a the problem and directed me to the dealer. I investigated further last week and found both front disintegrated from corrosion. I contacted the dealership who could find no record of such a problem, they referred me to GM with the same result. This is an low mileage vehicle in very good condition and I find this type of early failure of 2 identical parts unreasonable.

Already has a recall that has been lasting for 9 years! I believe that Chevrolet is waiting for more of these to no longer being used, so they won't have to fix so many.
