1 Front Air Bag Sensor Control problem

Failure Date: 06/06/2015

Service air bag message in display, codes u0170 lost communication with restraints system sensor a and b0081 passenger presence system erratic. This vehicle ran out of manufacture warranty 2-28-15. I diagnosed and repaired because of the car being out of warranty and the dealership wanting 140 some dollars just to get started. Safety recall campaign #14030 had been done on this vehicle by a Chevrolet dealer on 8-22-14. The front seats have to be loosened and raised up to perform the campaign. When this campaign was performed the locking tab for the wiring connector under the rf seat had been broken off and not secured in some way or replaced. This broken lock allowed the connector housings to slip apart gradually over time causing the wire terminal dis-connection un-safe condition I drove around with for about 9 months and 5000 miles. The dealership is not willing to work with me as far as re-imbursement for the mistake they made and Chevrolet customer assistance center is not willing to help either. I will think twice before I ever take any of my vehicles in for a safety recall campaign. I feel my car was safer before the safety recall was performed!.
