The front passenger side air bag warning light keeps going off. purchased car used and i am not sure of the problem. i want to be sure that this is a saftey issue for someone in the front seat. no accident yet,but i have concerns. it is on going as to a certain date.
I was stopped,went to accelerate,and sudden hard shift as it accelerated. after a few miles,lost all gears after 2nd gear.on interstate at time when lost gears & close to getting into major accident. took it to asc certified mechanic to learn that the transmission failed,wiring from battery to started burned up,battery failurem alternator failed, and ecm failed as well. repair cost approx $4600.00. service airbag light & check engine light on also & p0013 code. looked up veh history, shows recalls on some of this were supposedly performed, but hard to believe. 6 speed transmission, so gm won't honor.
When driving car air bag light has flashed on and off on three separate occasions each time as soon as steering wheel move position the light goes out there is a recall for the make and model year but my vin is not listed.
Tl* the contact owns a 2010 chevrolet malibu. while driving 20 mph in the snow, the contact crashed into a telephone pole. the air bags did not deploy. there were no injuries. a police report was filed. the vehicle was towed to a junkyard. the manufacturer filed a claim for the contact and stated that the air bags should have deployed. the dealer was not contacted. the failure mileage was 120,000.
My right front headlight (regular low beam) keeps going out and having to be replaced. my mechanic replaced it in july of this year, and again in october, and it is out yet again, not even two months later. my mechanic can't find any reason for it. in addition, my service air-bag light is on, although it's never gone off, and the entire transmission had to be replaced at about 63,000 miles. regarding the light - so far, i've been lucky that it hasn't contributed to any kind of accident, especially since deer are very active at this time of year and are very common in our area.
Service esc, service traction control, service air bags, brake lights on when pedal not pressed and not on when pedal is pressed and cruise control doesn't work periodically. these message appear off and on while driving. i have had the sensor under the brake pedal replaced twice now. last time 14 months ago so no longer under warranty and needs replaced again.
Air bag light goes on and off. when off and i hit a bump it turns back on. i have children and i am scared of an emergency it will not function.
Tl* the contact owns a 2010 chevrolet malibu. the contact received a notice regarding the wiring connector for the side air bags. the vehicle was not taken to a dealer to be repaired or diagnosed. the manufacturer stated that if a related warning indicator illuminated, then the vehicle would be serviced per the 'special coverage program'. in addition, if there was no warning indicator illumination related to the failure, the contact would be responsible for the diagnostic fees to determine if the vehicle had a potential failure related to the 'special coverage program'. the contact had not experienced a failure, but was concerned for his safety and the potential of a failure.
Service airbag dashboard warning light goes on and off intermittently both when car is at rest or in motion, especially when the car goes over a bump or pothole.
The brake lights illuminate without pressing on the brakes. i remember there being a recall before and i took my car in and it got fixed however it is doing it again. and my air bag light goes on and off all the time.
Pulled out of car wash and onto the highway (speed limit is only 40) through town, power steering went out and light began displaying with audible sound as well as service esc. the mileage on my vehicle is 150,760 when this occurred. there is currently a bulletin published referencing this problem (15356) in which it appears to only warrant a repair at manufacturer cost if 150,000 miles/ten years. from reading online forums, i am not the only one to "just" miss the failure and manufacturer reimbursement. this is dangerous and should be addressed no matter the mileage.
Tl* the contact owned a 2010 chevrolet malibu. while making a left turn at a green light, another vehicle struck the contact's vehicle on the passenger side. as a result, the contact's vehicle struck a pole on the driver's side. the air bags failed to deploy. a police report was filed. the contact sustained head and neck injuries the required medical attention. the vehicle was towed to a tow lot and deemed destroyed. the vehicle was not taken to a dealer to be diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 90,000.
