Two problems related to front air bag sensor control have been reported for the 1999 Chevrolet Cavalier. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
More than one incident: brake light and abs lights are on. The abs motor pack needs to be replaced, and was told by Chevrolet dealership that this is a frequent problem. Bad motor pack due to corrosion in gears in motor pack. This causes abs to "shut off" but also for breaks to drag, stick, premature break wear, and warped rotors. Many people have this issue. Newer design of motor pack consists of electronic solenoid. Chevrolet needs to recall this!.
