2010 Chevrolet Impala Airbags Problems

Your front passenger seat sensor is shorting out against the seat frame, which is causing the passenger airbags to turn off when they should be active. This matches issues described in recall #36110, but GM has not included your vehicle in that recall. You may not notice this problem until you need the airbags in an emergency, since the airbags will be disabled without a warning.

Your airbag warning light is on. This means your airbag system may not be working properly in a crash. You should have a dealer or mechanic diagnose what's causing the warning light to illuminate, as airbags are a critical safety feature.

Your car's 'Service Air Bag System' warning light came on while you were driving at 30 MPH. The dealer diagnosed that your air bag seat sensor and side-impact sensor need to be replaced. Even though your vehicle's VIN wasn't included in the official recall campaign, this is a safety system that should be repaired to ensure your airbags work properly in a crash. Getting these sensors replaced will restore your airbag system to working condition.

Your airbag warning light came on when you started your car. The dealer told you your vehicle isn't part of the recall for this issue, and you weren't able to get help from the manufacturer. Your car has not been repaired yet. The fix will likely require a dealer diagnostic scan to identify which airbag system component is faulty, followed by replacement or repair of that component.

Your dashboard is showing an air bag service message with the air bag warning light illuminated. A diagnostic check indicated a problem with the passenger air bag system, though shaking the wires under the seat temporarily made the light go away. You found a recall (16V507000) that describes this exact issue, but your vehicle's VIN wasn't included in that recall list. The fix will likely involve inspecting the passenger air bag wiring connections and potentially replacing faulty sensors or wiring harnesses.

Your airbag warning light and ABS warning light stay on continuously. There's also an electrical wiring issue that's draining your battery. A mechanic will need to diagnose the wiring fault and repair it, which may involve checking the airbag system, ABS system, and electrical connections.

The Airbag Service Light comes on!

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, MY 17 YEAR OLD SON INFORMED ME THAT THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP NEAR MY TOWN. THEY RAN TESTS ALL DAY TO SAY THAT A CONNECTION IN THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND A TERMINAL NEEDED TO BE REPLACED ($264). BEFORE GETTING HOME, WHICH IS ABOUT 10 MILES FROM THE DEALERSHIP, THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON. CALL THE DEALERSHIP AND RETURNED CAR. THIS TIME THEY TELL ME THAT THE SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED ($215). I FELT I WAS BEING GIVEN THE RUN AROUND SO I DID NOT GET IT REPAIRED THERE. SIX MONTHS LATER THE LIGHT COMES BACK ON. I TAKE IT TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP THINKING THEY HAVE BETTER QUALITY CARS AND THEY TEST IT. THEY SAY THAT IT'S SOMETHING ELSE IN THE SEAT AND THAT IT WILL BE APPROXIMATELY $700 TO REPAIR. I CONTACT GM TO SEE IF THERE IS A RECALL OR SOMETHING THAT CAN BE DONE. THEY STATE NO RECALL AND THAT IF IT'S NOT REPAIRED BY CERTIFIED GM DEALERSHIP, IF IT IS LATER RECALLED I WILL NOT BE REFUNDED. I TAKE IT TO CERTIFIED GM DEALER AND THEY SAY THEY DON'T FIND ANYTHING BECAUSE THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN RESET. LAST WEEK, AFTER THE LIGHT STAYING ON CONTINUOUSLY I TAKE IT TO THE CERTIFIED GM DEALERSHIP. THEY RUN DIAGNOSTICS AND TELL ME THAT IT'S THE SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER. AFTER PAYING APPROXIMATELY $325 AND THEM KEEPING MY CAR FOR A WEEK, I RECEIVE THE CAR BACK AND 35 MILES LATER THE LIGHT REAPPEARS. I AM DEFINITELY SICK OF THIS CAR AND THINK GM IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM BUT THEY DON'T WANT TO FIX IT BECAUSE OF ALL THE OTHER RECALLS THEY ARE HAVING. I HAVE SPENT OVER $700 TO NO AVAIL. MY NEXT CAR WILL DEFINITELY NOT BE ANYTHING GM! CALLING GM IS A WASTE OF TIME BECAUSE THEY ACT AS IF MY CALL IS A BURDEN TO THEM. *TR

POTENTIAL DEFECTIVE SEAT BELT ASSEMBLIES CAUSING AIRBAG LIGHTS TO COME ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY WHEN THE SEATS ARE MOVED FORWARD AND BACKWARDS.

I BELIEVE THIS IS A DEFECTIVE SEAT BELT ASSEMBLY THAT GM HAS INSTALLED IN CHEVY IMPALA?S AND THEY REFUSE TO TAKE OWNERSHIP. THEIR TRACK RECORD WITH FAULTY PARTS AND FAILURE TO RECALL UNSAFE VEHICLES HAS BEEN PROVEN. I FEEL THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AND I AM ASKING THE NTSB LOOK INTO THIS MATTER. *TR
