Railroad hyrail vehicle equipped, after market, with hyrail wheel assemblies which allow the vehicle to operate on railroad tracks. Once hyrail (flanged) wheels are retracted, the vehicle is operated over the highways and public roads like any other vehicle. On 3/16/12 a bnsf employee was operating the hyrail vehicle on hwy 34 near trenton, ne. A semi pulled out in from of him, causing him to rear end the semi at about 65 mph. Delayed airbag deployment led to him having extensive injuries, including lacerations to his forehead, collapsed lungs, spine fractures and rib fractures. Concern is that the installation of hyrail wheel assemblies might be impacting the airbag sensor. The hyrail wheel assemblies extend approx. One foot of steel framework ahead of the front and rear bumpers. The placement of these assemblies might inadvertently be affecting airbag deployment in crashes on the railroad track and on public roads.

The service air bag started to be displayed frequently beginning early September 2009 on my 2005 Chevrolet 3500. I notified my local dealer on sept 10, 2009 and the vehicle was serviced on September 11. The diagnose was a faulty frontal sensor. On October 31, 2009 the service brake system displayed and the abs light would not go out on the same vehicle. This was accompanied along with an annoying repeating beep sound. I contacted my local dealer again and informed of the problem. After several stopping and restarting of the engine the lights went out. On November 8, my service air bag message displayed multiple times through out the day. The truck is scheduled for another service appointment. Is there a problem with the electrical system?.
