Service airbag on the dash / airbag light

- Anniston, AL, USA

I understand that 2006 Cadillac cts has a recall for airbag problems. Cadillac doesn't deny that the same system was used in the Sts. I've seen several complaints about the same problem. I just wonder why the Sts was not recalled. I knew there was no warranty, and that's why I contacted Cadillac. Knowing this they sent me for a diagnostic, which was a waste of time and money. The end result was that they said it's not under warranty. I would just like you to investigate to see if there should be a recall. This is a safety issue that Cadillac should address.

Started receiving a constant, "service air bag" warning message after 125,000 miles. The dealer told me the passenger presence module needed replaced. It will cost $1,000 for the part, labor, and programming. Now I read on this forum that the same issue was found on the cts model and it was recalled by the manufacturer, but not the Sts. It's difficult to justify putting that much money in an older vehicle.

Takata recall: Service airbag warning appeared on the instrument panel. Auto is currently in the shop for analysis. The 2006 cts has the same airbag system. And it has been recalled. The Sts has not. Why?

Involved in head-on collision on July 31, 2016 when a vehicle pulled out in front of me on a clear, dry, day on pavement I was traveling about 30 mph and tried to swerve to miss the other vehicle, but my vehicle made contact on the left front quarter panel of my car hitting the other vehicle at the drivers side door. My air bag did not go off nor did the seat belt stop me from hitting the steering wheel. After the accident, the warning panel read "service air bag". the other driver was ticketed for failure to yield.

Went to start up my 2006 Sts-V today. After a few blocks of driving my airbag light came on. Another few seconds passed and across the message board it said service airbag system.

We own a 2006 Cadillac, Sts, V8. At approximately 96K miles the airbag sensor warning illuminated. At first it was intermittent. Then became constant. Dealership sais it will be $900-$1100 to repair. The warning was first noticed upon startup in the garage. Same problem existed in the cts and was recalled according to the tech at the dealership. Cadillac should fix this problem with as many other reports that have been documented. Ourselves along with many other Cadillac Sts owners are driving vehicles without airbags. Whats the point?

While starting my car, a light came on my car indicating "service air bag". I took my car to the dealership and they indicated that the passenger seat module for the air bag needed replacement in order to correct the service air bag issue. The total cost of repair including parts, labor and reprogramming was $1,000 to $1,200. I do not have $1,000 to fix this problem, so I am forced to drive a car without airbags. The 2005 - 2007 cts has the same issue and GM issued a recall. Why not the Sts"?"
