2017 Chevrolet Volt Airbags Problems

Airbag warning light illuminated on dash. Vehicle no longer registered the passenger in the front passenger seat. Dealer states diagnostic code indicates OCCUPANT POSITION DETECTION SYSTEM SENSOR is faulty.

The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Volt. The contact stated that while driving approximately 40 MPH, another unknown vehicle crashed into his vehicle which went airborne and over the median. There were no warning lights to illuminate.

My 2017 chevy volt gives me 'service airbag' warning all the time. And the dealer says it is not covered under warranty, but the car has never met with any accidents or spills. So there is no reason for customer damage.

My volt was t-boned on the passenger side of the car by a red light runner. I had just started to enter into the intersection a second or so after my light turned green, so not going very fast. The other car was going 25-35 MPH (approx.).

When pulling into my garage, the car suddenly accelerated unexpectedly and collided with the front wall of the garage (photo 08); when I shifted to reverse, the car careened out of the garage, across the driveway, and collided with my neighbor's home (photo 09), leaving skid marks (photos 06 & 07) on the garage floor. The car was in normal electric mode at the time.

The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Volt. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the contact became aware that the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer however, the vehicle was not diagnosed, or repaired.

The service airbag indicator and airbag light illuminated on my dash. I took the vehicle to the dealership and was told the passenger presence module needs replaced. Without this repair, all airbags in the vehicle are disabled when the light is on.

The airbag warning light is lit and the system says the airbag needs service. It appears to require an $ 800 replacement of a part.

The vehicle’s service airbag warning light is illuminated. The dealership diagnostic indicates that the passenger seat sensor needs to be replaced. Based on my research, this was also an issue with the Volt’s 1st Gen models.
