Service airbag light on, spontaneously came on, and remains on at all times. Repair estimate from GMC dealer: passenger front airbag $991. 50 r rear sensor $500. 85.

Tl the contact owns a 2012 GMC Acadia. The contact stated that the air bag warning indicator remained illuminated. The dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The vehicle was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 14v118000 (air bags). The contact was uncertain if the failure was related to the 11 tsbs for the air bags. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 47,000.

Vehicle jerks at certain speeds, oil in throttle body, slow changing gears, rpm's not adjusting correctly . This happens everyday usually between 30-50 miles per hour. Airbag light stays on at all times and never goes off.

The air bag light has been going on intermittently since around 2013. The first repair was completed due to a recall notice back then. The light came back on again shortly after, repaired one more time. The air bag light came on a 3rd time, and vehicle was take to another gm service center for repair. They performed this repair in 2016, and noted they repaired a broken clip, but allegedly was a different problem that the one the recall addressed about 2 years prior. Now a few months after this last repair, the air bag light came on again. The gm service center is diagnosing a completely different problem than the first recall, and different than their last repair. This one they are noting a problem with the "right front side deployment loop" and recommend that the passenger seat air bag be replaced. As a consumer, whether the air bag light is "not part of the recall, and you can only get the recall work done once", this is extremely concerning that this vehicle has had so many issues with the safety devices at no more than 5 years of age. This should not be happening with any safety devices on any vehicle that is only 5 years old (although the air bag system has continuously been defective since age 1 of the vehicle). General motors bears an enormous liability with selling vehicles that have continuous safety defects, especially at an early age of the vehicle.

I have repeatedly had problems with the airbag. It has been repaired 4 times and continues to have frayed wiring which disables the airbag. This is a major safety hazard on this SUV and has been recalled for issues more than once. I was told by the dealer- d'ella GMC that if the airbag light is on, it wont deploy in an accident. Another recall should be issued since there are numerous postings on the internet about the problem.

The contact owns a 2012 GMC Acadia. While the front passenger seat was occupied, the service air bag indicator illuminated intermittently. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer for diagnostic testing or repairs. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact to take the vehicle to the dealer for diagnostic testing. The manufacturer stated that the VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 14v118000 (air bags). The approximate failure mileage was 114,000.

Without probation, air bag light comes on and stays on either until I turn car off or if car sits overnight. I do believe the airbag can deploy when the light is on if we were involved in a crash.

I purchased my GMC Acadia denali in August of 2012. Within just a few months, the service air bag light came on when I started the vehicle. It never went off until I took the vehicle to have it serviced. The dealership repaired it under warranty and within a few weeks it came back on. Service trip #2 they got it to stay off for a short time again. Service trip #3 they decide they should replace the drivers air bag to correct the problem. Since the replacement I have taken my vehicle back in at least 2 other times. On March 25, 2014 I got my vehicle serviced and the light had been on the week prior but was off on this day. I did advise them of the problem and they said they had not heard of the recent recall. Well today 4/4/14 the service air bag light is on again. I just called them and they said I would get my notice in the mail from gm and they are ordering parts. Whatever that means. I only have 11463 miles on my vehicle and this is a serious issue to me.
