Chevrolet S10 owners have reported 2 problems related to front driver side air bag inflator (under the air bag category). The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Takata inflators--air bag light is on and stays on even after I had already had it reset,the dome light blows fuses more than it should sometimes 3-4 times a month,the blinkers act funny sometimes and the seat belts hang up and u have to pull on them a few times to get them to release so you can buckle them,the transmission grinds when you put it into reverse,the clutch fan came apart and I had to replace it and most of this happened when I was sitting still I have the recall#'s(n970033--n980043/NHTSA#98v150.
I was driving a chevy s-10 when a lady pulled in front of me. I was doing the speed limit of about 55-60 mph. I ended up hitting her car and in turn my truck rolled over several (6-10) times. The whole truck from bumper to bumper and side to side and top to bottom was destroyed. The truck was totaled. The seatbelt did its job but no airbag came out. I bought the truck used from a local car dealer here in concord 2 years ago. I am very bruised and cut and very upset that just maybe if that airbag had worked I would not have gotten all that glass along with everything else flying my way. I know that an airbag works when it is hit just right, but as I stated there is no part on that truck that was not hit including the front bumper as it is almost off the truck. The insurance company is taking control of the truck as we speak but there are numerous pictures and witnesses to this. I just want to know if something was wrong and that I did not put all my safety assurances into this airbag. Thank-you for your time. Christine floro.
