1 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 08/21/2022

Airbag light in the dashboard goes on and off intermittently. There is a lot of talk on the Corvette forum of other people having the same issue. I'm concerned the airbag won't work if it's needed.

2 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 06/20/2022

Passenger side air bag module will not arm the air bag system when any person sits in the seat. Have made multiple attempts to purchase the air bag presence module since June of 2022. Once with dealer, could not get the part, and two more times online. Each time I am told the part is on back order and they have no timeline as to when the part will become available. So I have a $86,000 Corvette that my wife or son cannot ride in because the air bag sensor is faulty.

3 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 09/27/2021

1. Strong fuel smell when the car is parked in garage. Believe it is coming from top of driver's side fuel tank. Vapor is so strong I'm afraid it will explode. Doesn't matter if tank is full or empty. 2. Seat belt air bag warning light is on in the driver's cluster unit. Car only has 35,000 miles. Don't think this is safe. Will need it checked out ASAP at dealer.

4 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 11/17/2018

Abs light stays on. History: on 11/17/18 before driving my vehicle I had to adjust my driver's seat all the way back to accommodate my long legs after another person had previously moved the seat forward when they were sitting in the vehicle. When I started the vehicle the abs light briefly flashed, then came on steady, then it after several minutes the light eventually went out while I was driving. The next time I started the car the abs light came on, flashed briefly, then remained on steady. Now, each time the car is started/driven, the abs light briefly flashes during start up and then always remains constantly on after that. The vehicle only has 19,000 miles on it.
