One problem related to air bag light on has been reported for the 1996 Chevrolet Tahoe. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I have a 1996 chevy Tahoe which I have been the original owner since new. I recently had maintenance performed on the vehicle and had the shop check the drivers side air bag because the check air bag indicator light was coming on during the operation of the vehicle. The repair shop indicated to me that the sensor needed to be replaced but the sensor was no longer available even after a states wide search was performed. I contacted general motors only to find out the part has been discontinued and no replacement part is available. The part number from gm is #16162465 and there is no after market parts. Is general motors still responsible for a replacement part for this required safety item or what do you suggest I do to correct this problem?.
