Air Bag Not Deploy problems of the 2010 Chevrolet Equinox

Since I purchased this vehicle, I constantly get a "service airbag" message on my dashboard. I have notified the dealer as well as gm/chevorlet by phone and was told that unfortunately there is no recall for this. I took my car to the dealer in which I purchased and since they did not see the message they said there is nothing they can do. I fear (god forbid) being in an accident and the airbag does not deploy. I do travel with my children in which one of the 3 is a toddler. Is there anything that can be done. - also which is very annoying my key gets stuck in the ignition. Now I have 2 sets of keys one gets stuck more than the other, but there are times where I have to spend hours trying to remove it - I took it to the dealer but once again was told nothing is wrong with this. I have seen numerous videos and forums with the same complaint. Needles to say I would never purchase a chevy again! too many issues for a car that I've only had a few years.

As I approached an intersection, I hit the rear end of a Ford 150 pick up truck that was in the intersection waiting to make a left turn. My approx speed was 15 miles per hour. I had my seatbelt on, I was taken by ambulance to the hospital - my evaluation revealed sprain/strain to my neck, fractured right ankle, and chest wall discomfort related to the seat belt. The car was totaled --- the airbag did not deploy.

On Jan 17th,2011 my vehicle was wrecked by the dealer on site of dealership. The whole front end was caved in on center. The driver a mechanic at don woods Chevrolet was driving at a higher then normal speed. He hit a pole dead center and the air bag did not deploy. The driver was injured to what extent I am not sure, but I am not wanting this car back feeling the airbag may deploy at anytiime due to the hit it took or it isn't safe and will not deploy upon an accident.

I bought a 2010 chevy Equinox in Nov 2009. Whenever a passenger rides with me using a laptop the passenger-side airbag light goes "off" and the dashboard computer display says "service passenger airbag. " it's consistent and very much a safety issue since the passenger airbag would not deploy in an accident while using the laptop. We do a lot of long-distant driving and laptop use is a business necessity. The chevy safety folk said, "don't use a laptop" - a very unsatisfactory response.
