Side/window Air Bag Problems of Chevrolet Sonic

Passenger side airbag sensor light is inconsistent. With any passenger seated the "on" light does not stay on. It will sometimes come on temporarily then off again. This happens whether or not the car is in motion. I have noticed numerous similar concerns from others on line and even on this site.

My wife and I w'er hit by a person that ran a red light the car was tottled out with major front end damage no air bags deployed at all when the side air bags should have deployed but didnt causing my whole side and head smashing into the side driver door.

Another car ran a red light & my son, in the Sonic ran into the side of the other car. His Sonic was totaled & despite this fact that the other car's side airbags deployed upon impact, his Sonic airbags did not. My son was accelerating from stop light on a city street when the other car ran the red light. The impact was severe enough to bend 2 of the 4 frame rails. The engine compartment buckled down as they should have, but the concerning thing is airbags didn't deploy with a significant impact. My son now has a replacement Sonic but concerned due to the recent recall of several million cars/trucks with defect in airbag deployment mechanism of gm products.
