1 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 01/30/2020

I have problems with whenever I go to put gas in my car, some of it goes on the ground. Not all of the gas goes on the ground, but a little less than half of what I purchased. My headlights are so dim that I can't hardly see when I'm driving at night. Also, my passenger side air bag light is constantly on? there's one there and nothing bigamy wrong with it that I can see. The stereo. . . . . Only the driver side front speaker works, the other three doesn't work at all. . . . Please look into these few things or give me some sort of idea of what I can do.

2 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 05/15/2017

Airbag light came on and has stayed on for 2 months. Unable to detect what is wrong with electronic reader. Airbags are disengaged, and I can't find out why without paying more money than I have to spend because each component has to be checked, and that doesn't include actually fixing the problem, just figuring out what the problem is. I've seen that many people have complained about this. Passenger airbag sensor started acting weird/ not working first. Occurred around 100 k miles. When will a recall happen? this is apparently a common safety issue.

6 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 12/17/2015

My airbag light has been on for 3 months and know once it's on won't work if and when I need it. This a major safety concern and something that gm should be addressing as it seems to be a manufacturer related issue. I took my vehicle down to my local auburn cheverolet and they told me they would have to replace the clock on my dashboard which works perfectly fine in order to fix the airbag problem. This doesn't seem right and should be a big red flag. I would like to see gm address these issues instead of sweeping it under their proverbial rug. They are putting customers at great risk.

19 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 03/05/2011

After buying my car brand new the air bag light went on and stayed on till this day. At the beginning I thought it was only the passenger air bag and went and asked about it at the dealership where they actually informed me that it wasn't only the passenger airbag thats not working, rather none of the airbags work. That was made clear a month later when my dad, grandmother, and brother were driving it and got t-boned by a truck and of course non of the airbags went off. I mean getting tboned by a truck is pretty serious thing where air bags should deploy! the Aveo is not the safest car to start out with but to also have zero airbags thats pretty messed up, pretty much a death waiting to happen, because lets be real here, I stand no chance if I get in an accident in that car. Might as well no have seat belts on there either. When contacted the dealership more than once they have nothing to say other than pay us and well look into it then you'll pay us more. I will never buy another Chevrolet car again.
