Air Bag Light On problems of the 2006 Chevrolet Cobalt

Air bag lights come on car is hard to steer air conditioning does not work any more and I get an engine reduce power light comes on.

For the past three days driving to and from work my chevy Cobalt has been putting me in danger. When I start to break, sometimes the symbol with a lock and key, and air bag lights will turn on and the car steering wheel would lock and the brakes would come up resulting in the car being turned off while I am on drive. This is dangerous because I cannot turn the wheel and the brake is also locked. I get out of my car in the middle of traffic to push it by myself then jump in it and try to start it. This method works sometimes but is dangerous to not only myself but more importantly others. I do not know what is the main cause for this issue however I did some research and did not see any recall on this problem. I need help fingering it out before I hurt myself or others in the middle of the road driving unable to steer or break.

Airbag warning indicator has been constantly on.

Just bought 2006 chevy Cobalt ss I know there was a recall for the power steering going out I called the dealership about the recalls I gave them the VIN and over the phone they said there is still 3 recalls for the car I went there today and they said there was only one they fixed it but it wasn't the power steering he said it was already fixed but there been times the power steering goes out on its own and I'm curious if they are still responsible for fixing that recal. Another thing was the airbags which I believe was another recall for the car the airbag lights is on and once again they refused to cover it.

I bought this car used last March (2014) with 56000 miles on the car. The airbag light came on (within a month of purchase) and has stayed on. It turns out to be the airbag sensor module. It will cost $850. 00 before taxes to fix this isssue. I am a single mom who is working her way through college. I simply can not afford to get this light fixed. I have contacted chevy several times and have begged them for financial help. I even asked them to supply the part and I would pay for labor. I found on this website a recall for over 2 million Cobalt's to have the airbag module replaced. Chevy is telling that this recall is not to my car because the recall is not attached to my VIN number. I was hoping that you could further assist me with the recall and to see if it would happen to apply to my car. It looks like this is a common problem among Cobalts. Please and thank you for your time.

My chevy Cobalt 2006, has had the issue with the emergency air bag lighting up and saying it is off and I get the message that the "air bag needs to be serviced". I have less than 45 thousand miles. Around June 2010, my mother and I were in the car and we were on the highway when we heard the beeping sound and the airbag light turned on, meaning the passenger side airbag was off. It is suppose to turn on automatically, but has not. Every time we start the car the beeping sound starts and the passenger side has no airbag protection. I have noticed that many people are who have the chevy Cobalt have the same issue.

Service airbag light on.

We bought a 2,006 chevy Cobalt with 16. 769miles on it. Was not told it was used as a lease vehicle and was not told that it was bought at an auction. So you can see we certainly are not very happy to begin with. Hidden truths. We was called on March 26,2010 at 10;30 to go and pick upour vehicle. "they had just finished putting the sterring column in-recall but said it was not for our vehicle. . . . We turned the vehicle on and the airbag light came on and stayed on until we arrived home some 30 miles away. Was told it was in the sensor and persons weight-o. K. Then just leaning on it kept it on again. This is dangerous. Any recalls and how can this be fixed?.

My 2006 chevy Cobalt has the air bag light on. I received a possible recall notice in February 2010 stating that there were problems with the steering. The letter stated that I would be receiving a letter stating were and when to take my car in for check up. It is July 2010 and I have not received any notice. I'm afraid that this defect will cause an accident. I called the chevy dealer here in salinas CA, and they told me that they did not have the parts yet and that I should wait for that letter and my car could not be checked until then. Please help out it is very scary and I'm very concerned. Thank you for your attention to this important matter.

I have a 2006 Chevrolet Cobalt with 39k miles. My steering wheel shakes when driving, it is sometimes hard to turn, the radio turns on and off, and the check engine light & air bag light are on. I took the car to the dealership and they said nothing is wrong with the car. They got the lights to turn off. My warranty is now expired and the same lights came on again.

2006 Cobalt 2 door, I was heading to work a couple of months ago when the airbag light turned on after I parked the car and restarted it the light did not come on. After I got off of work I tuned the car on and the light did not turned on after about 15 seconds into driving the car the light came back again. It continued for the next 3 days I was going to take it to the dealer but the 4th day the light stayed off. Then 3 weeks later the same thing happened and it as well kept lighting up for the next 3 days and when I was heading to the dealer the 4th day the light did not come on. It has not happened since then. Did the research on it and lots of owners have the problem. So far no accidents on the car but I would like the airbags to deploy if I were to be in an accident.
