Tl- the contact owns a 2008 Chevrolet Avalanche. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle the air bag sensor light would remain illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer.

I have a 2008 chevy Avalanche ltz, I have a problem with the dash light coming on with service air bag, wiring by the emergency brake pedal a problem. It happens when it running, stationary, when I start the truck. I took the truck to the dealership and they replaced the air bag and the air bag sensor. The light came back on and comes on intermittently. No fix as of yet. This happens all the time from March to present day still ongoing!!!!.

Takata recall it has been more than 2 yrs since I was notified of the airbag recall. My Avalanche sensors are stating the airbag system has failed. I have been to the internet web sites and the dealership dozens of times only to get the same feedback. . . No solution has been determined, nothing they can do. It is pretty clear to me that they know how to fix the issue, but they are using stall tactics to avoid incuring the cost they are legally bound to spend. My particular make/model/year was supposed to prioritized and completed by March 2018. Since it is clear to me the stall tactics have been working with no accountability, I thought maybe I would trade the car in for a safer one without air bag problems. . . . No dealer will take the car in on trade because of the air bag problem. So I am stuck driving an known-unsafe-vehicle and putting my family at risk the airbag system won't arm, it's a known recall issue, and I cannot get it fixed makes no sense and is completely unacceptable.

The contact owns a 2008 Chevrolet Avalanche 1500. While driving approximately 30 mph, the air bag inadvertently deployed without impact to the vehicle. There were no personal injuries. The vehicle was towed to an authorized dealer for diagnosis. The malfunction was contributed to a faulty air bag sensor module. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 29,000. The VIN was unavailable.
