I noticed an air bag light that appears on the cluster of my 2012 Chevrolet Malibu upon starting the car.

Although my vehicle's warranty is no longer valid since it is more than 5 years, but the vehicle has very low miles (about 22k) and I believe gm should pay for the services for this issue to be diagnosed since it is safety related but they refused to pay for any services.
