This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact owns a 2005 Chevrolet Corvette. The contact stated that the air bag warning light kept illuminating. The vehicle was inspected by a dealer and they advised her that when she moved her seat back and forth, it fractured the wire for the air bags. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure and current mileage was approximately 27,000.
I filed my first complaint 8/1/08 with NHTSA and nothing has changed. My number is 10236693. My air bag warning light goes off and on. I took it to the dealer and of course the light was off. They said to bring it back when the light is on. I've had the car over four years and it's never on long enough to take it in. How long do I have to drive it not knowing if I'm protected?
Check air bag light comes on often. It will stay on for a minuet or up to 7 or 8 minutes. I am a member of the Corvette forum with over 15,000 post. It is a problem that many C6 Corvette owners have with little to no luck getting it fixed. I have had this problem off and on since 2005. One period it went for over a year with no problem. I am trying to wait until the light stays on to take it to the dealer. I know how hard it is to trouble shoot an intermittent problem. Many forum members have had it fixed only to have to light come on again. No members have heard of a for sure fix. I wonder if my air bags even work and how does the dealer know they work if they can't fix the light?
