Air Bag Light On problems of the 2012 Chevrolet Cruze

High resistance in deployment loop #8 drivers seat side airbag requires: replacement of airbag module 1 and only owner of the vehicle. Has not been involved in any accident or impact which may have caused airbag deployment - yet mid-August my "service airbag" light came on the dash. On 8/23/17 I took my vehicle to our local dealer for this issue (and to fix, for the second time, a prior recall of the power brake vacuum assembly) and was told dielectric grease was placed on the airbag connection and the airbag light went off. Weeks later the "service airbag" light came back on. On 9/25/17 the Cruze was taken by to our local dealer at which time we were notified there is high resistance in deployment loop #8 drivers seat side airbag and it would require replacement of the airbag. In both instances, the service airbag light came on as traveling straight down the road. As mentioned above, my vehicle has not been involved in any accident and nothing has been done which would have caused either the airbags to deploy or this "service airbag" light to engage. An airbag which should not require any replacement for the life of the vehicle, is now needing to be replaced at no fault of mine. This is clearly a manufacturer defect as there is nothing which I could or have done to cause this to require replacement. Yet, Chevrolet has indicated that since there is not a recall on this item yet and it is not covered under special coverages they cannot cover this. When you purchase a vehicle brand new and are the only one to own it (current mileage of 55,000) an airbag should not warrant replacement. There is no circumstance in which I should have to pay for the manufacturers defective airbag. A recall needs to be established for this as this is a safety issue which needs to be addressed immediately. Cost to replace airbag - $1,230.

The service airbag light has been coming on.

The contact owns a 2012 Chevrolet Cruze. While driving at any speed, the service air bag indicator illuminated intermittently. The vehicle was driven to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the deployment loop low resistance had a poor connection between the sir coil and steering wheel air bag. The sir coil and steering wheel air bag were replaced. The manufacturer was notified. The contact referenced NHTSA campaign number: 14v300000 (air bags); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The approximate failure mileage was 115,000.

I purchased my car 06/25/2014. I noticed that my check engine and air bag light goes on and off. I contacted gm and was told that there is a recall for the car for the airbags. The representative asked me if I was notified by the dearlership about the recall. I was not notified by the dearlership about the recall.
