Air bag light came on and stays on. Dealer charged $68 for evaluation and advised that an air bag derm module is required to correct the defect at an additional cost of $450. The dealer indicates that the air bag probably would not deploy in a collision and even indicated that they could not rule out that the air bag might deploy while driving without a collision to trigger deployment. GMC refuses to correct this safety defect at no cost to the owner and has only offered a 50/50 split. I feel that GMC should be replacing this defective system at 100% their cost. Your web site says that if a safety-related defect exists in a motor vehicle, the manufacturer must fix it at no cost to the owner.
