2 Warning Light On problem

Failure Date: 01/05/2019

Several months ago onstar notified me that I needed to take my vehicle in for service due to a warning that stated there was a problem with the airbag, I did take the car to the dealer and they did not find anything. During the last few days I keep getting a warning that says "service airbag. " I went online to see if anyone else was having the same problem. Sure enough, over 30 people, and there could be a lot more, had reported the same type of problem that I am having. The "service airbag" warning light comes on while I am driving and stays on for hours, then it will go off, but come back on again. Sometimes it comes on and stays on before I leave the driveway. In some cases other owners stated that they had to pay more than $1,200 to have a repair done and then the problem appeared again. I bought the vehicle brand new and only have 45,000 miles on it. This is clearly a factory defect and I would hope that no one is seriously injured or killed before some action is taken by your agency to have this problem rectified by general motors.
