1 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 07/01/2019

Air bag light comes on and off. Seems to me its could be something electrical, cause it doesn't stay on all the time. Seems like this should be a safety recall but I'm the 4th owner of this Corvette so dont know if there was a recall and it never got fixed. Thanks. It comes on and no set pattern for the air bag light to come on. Sometimes it doesn't come on for a week or two and sometimes it stays on.

2 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 05/23/2019

Last week the red air bag light located on the instrument panel on my 2010 Corvette came on indicating there is a problem with the operations of my air bag, an important safety item required on vehicles by federal law. Doing some web research, I found a service bulletin #15643 dated for vehicles repaired on or after 4/21/16. While the 10-page notice provides all the details, in short, a connector was defective. Taking my vehicle to my local Chevrolet dealer today, I was informed that my vehicles problem was due to a connector that was unplugged, probably due to seat movement. So, my exact same problem that g. M. Is covering on the driver's side it is not covering the exact problem on the passenger seat? I am certain the connector on the passenger side of the vehicle was designed by the same engineer that designed the one on the driver's side. I am certain they were both manufactured by the same vendor. I am certain the materials are the same. The resulting problem is the same. The passenger side connector problem is the same as the driver's side and g. M. Should reimburse me for the cost of the repair.

3 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 10/13/2016

Airbag light intermittently lights, when I havent adjusted the seats and not speeding. Seems to be a common occurence with Corvette owners. Saw it a few times before but it stopped before I took it into the dealers for service.

4 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 07/24/2014

While driving at varying speeds, the air bag light will flash on and off randomly. This indicates a fault with the airbag system, and as a result the airbags are deactivated and will not provide protection to occupants. The car was taken to the dealer, upon which the front impact sensor was replaced. The problem then returned several days later. It would appear based on others' experiences with this issue that it is related to a wiring harness connector that is secured to the seat frame.

5 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 07/02/2014

Airbag light comes on intermittently, many Corvette owners are having this safety issue, for numerous years. Mine is 2010.

6 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 07/01/2014

When I accelerate hard from a stop and get to a high speed ( over 80 mph ) the airbag light comes on. When the airbag light is on all airbags are disabled. The only way to turn the light back of is to turn off the car and restart it. It will be fine until I accelerate quickly to a high speed. This car was made to drive fast and this shouldn't happen. I have taken to the dealer many times and they cannot fix it. This is a know problem with the Corvette as I have talk with other owners who have the same problem.

7 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 06/28/2014

Airbag light coming on while traveling down the road.

8 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 07/23/2013

From time to time the air bag light comes on and stays on. It will go off if I move the driver's seat back and forth a litle. I have taken it to the dealer and they can find nothing wrong even after taking the driver's seat out and completely re-installing it. This continues to happen from time to time and my concern is that I have come to ignore the light and one of these days the light will be on for a reason and I will ignore it . I have been told that many other 2010 Corvette owners have the same complaint my suspicion is that the issue is in the wiring which may be getting pinched from time to time as the seat moves back and forth.
