A �service airbag� notification has been turning on sporadically while driving my 2010 Camaro (regardless of speed and/or if a passenger is in the car). When I told my local dealership's service department while I was there getting an oil change, the employee told me it would cost $120 for the vehicle diagnostic and that if I get into a car accident my airbag wouldn't deploy. I think it's unfair and irresponsible of them to charge for the diagnostic, from what I've read online, many other individuals have had this problem with the 2010 Camaro and gm knows about the defect and that the passenger airbag will not deploy. The fact that this is still not a recall is criminally neglectful and I believe there is currently a class action suit against the company.

Takata recall, I was driving down my city street when all of a sudden I believe it was a pot hole or just uneven gravel leading my knee hit the key in the ignition and in that second I had no control or control of what happened next. I could not brake, my seat belt locked on me hurting my collar bone, then my wheel was so hard to turn I was using both hands aggressively to turn as hard as I can just so I wouldn't hit a building or cause damage to others and as I was sterling I would keep pressing the brakes and they were just locked. I had to hit a barrier of wood to stop my car. The airbags did not deploy as well which was very scary. I had no control of my car for the first time and it was not my fault, this has never happened and I know it's because of the key being bumped. My recall # 14v346000 accidental bumping of key ignition. I had no idea this car had a recall. The dealership did not inform me either. I am now car -less and hoping to get somewhat taken care of because it was unsafe and I don't wish this on anyone. Very scary experience.

The image you see is an example of an airbag that a lady suffered from your recent recalled airbag tamara. I have similar evidence in the same exact and length and width cut as she does. . . I was a passenger in this car that become out of control, also an ignition recall was proven to hurt people in the 2010 Camaro. I wasn't the drive so all I know is driver lost control an ran onto the side of the road into the grass, flush ground, inbetwen a fence and the road had 100-200 ft to brake and turn the car back on the road avoiding a colvert. But instead major malfunction. Frontal airbags went off at the wrong time, also evidence shows airbag cut my throat, also side and sunroof airbags did not deploy! vehicle went airborn, all ends of vehicle was impacted. Note. Passenger! not owner!.

The air bag light and alarm came on and off in the passenger seat when some one is sitting in it, and the service air bag light is on all the time, so apparently the passenger air bag is not on or will not deploy in case of an accident, so apparently the sensor in the seat is not working and in doing some research on this problem I have found this to be a major complaint for this model Camaro and I hear it is very expensive to fix if its fixable at all.

I was hit by a 2016 GMC yukon xl who had ran a red light hit the front passenger side of my vehicle dragged me along the median and then knocked me up over the median strip into oncoming traffic and my airbags never deployed.

Gm Chevrolet Camaro airbags didnot deploy at all. Camaro total loss, a subject of multiple collisions 1 left front struck by another driver, right front result from initial, and center collision (most extensive impact and damage.

The passenger's air bag light is on that states the bag is off. Took to dealer and was told the seat sensor needs replaced. Car has 60000 miles. Came on around 52000. Was told that the airbag will not deployed if involved in an accident unless the sensor was replaced. Cost to replace $700. 00. Searched and seems to be a problem on this make. Researched NHTSA web site and there are close to 200 complaints for the same thing. Do not know why no recall has been issued do to a safety hazard. Light is on where moving or parked.

Takata recall my service airbag light came on recently. I called the dealer and they gave me the run around. They first said my recall noticed expired and when I called another time they said the recall had been taken care of. I was not ever once notified by the dealer that they "fixed" a recall. I had someone run the diagnostics test on Friday and it said it was the driver's airbag shortening bar (recall# 12661). I spoke to gm and they contacted the dealership I go to and the dealership refuses to fix it. They said I have to pay for it. They just want their money! this is an obvious manufacturer issue that the dealership should take care of! my safety does not concern them. The recall specifically says if the bar and terminals are contacting each other at the time of a crash necessitating deployment of the driver's frontal airbag, that airbag will not deploy, increasing the driver's risk of injury. The dealer should take care of this issue! my safety should be their priority!.

My airbag service light keeps coming on. When someone sits in the passenger seat, my airbag light keeps going from on to off while someone is sitting in the seat.

The airbag light came on in my Camaro indicating that there was something wrong with the passenger side airbag. I took it to the jim ellis Chevrolet dealership on peachtree industrial blvd in atlanta, GA and they informed me that the seat sensor that determines if the passenger side airbag is on or not had deteriorated and needed to be replaced. The risk I ran was the airbag not deploying in the event of an accident or the airbag deploying at a time that I didn't want it to. My warranty had just expired the year before which means I would have to pay the full price. This fix cost me over $800 and I do not appreciate having to spend this kind of money on a standard feature of a vehicle that is not suppose to malfunction, especially this early in the vehicle's life. It has occurred to me that this has been a recurring problem amongst Camaros between 2009 and 2012. I believe I speak for most consumers when I say that we hold general motors at a higher standard than this and that we should not have to deal with these kinds of problems in our vehicles especially within the first 65,000 miles of it's life. I would appreciate it if general motors reimbursed me this $800 since I this is a problem I should not have had to deal with this soon in the vehicles lifetime. I like driving my Camaro and I would like to continue to drive it safely without being hindered by major repair costs. Thank you for your consideration.

On 4 different occasions, the service airbag indicator has turned on in my car. It has been in the service department each time with work listed as connections cleaned, sensor checked, warning reset. . . . . But no replacement parts and nothing noted as defective. I've been told putting a lap top on the passenger seat could set off the sensor. . . . . A blue-tooth call could set off the sensor, but not why? most recent trip (#5) to hendricks motors was 04/24/2014. We picked the car up, ran errands (appx. 40 miles) and the light is on again - the same day! I have been told the air bags will still deploy, the air bags might deploy, and the air bags will not deploy, as long as the service light is on. What is my next step? I am trying to document everything in case there is an accident and the bags don't deploy.
