1 Seat Broken problem of the 2006 Chevrolet Cobalt

Failure Date: 09/01/2014

The activating switch for the passenger-side air bag failed around 78,000 miles. This seat switch activates the passenger airbag safety system when an occupant sits down in the front passenger seat. I was told at the time we had the ignition switch recall repair done to the car that the only way to replace the broken seat switch was to replace the passenger seat cover. To do this requires an initial outlay of $150. 00 dollars for the part( the switch is woven into the seat fabric)plus labor to install(price unknown)at the dealership. Without regard to age,weight or gender any front seat passenger may believe they are protected upon reading the dashboard 'airbag' sign when sitting in the car. The panel-mounted indicator for that airbag is a lighted display which, in daylight, is hard to see without cupping your hand over the annunciator-or wait until nightfall , get somebody to sit in the seat, and then check out the dash light.
