My airbag light and 'service air bag' light and ABS light and stabalize track light were all on for a few week and I took it to local shop who said the sensor for the brakes under driver seat was bad so that cost $580 for new module. That took care of ABS/stabilize lights. Had to to go dealer for airbag lights and they charged $1070 because the airbag module under passenger seat was out and had to replace (part 560 plus labor). I don't feel like I should have had to pay for the airbags!! the airbag lights were on for about 6 months and never went off so I finally got tired of it...no matter if someone was sitting in seat or not, or whether it was idle, in motion, etc.

I was parked in my garage and started my Equinox, as a put my foot on the brake to put in reverse the stabilitrak light came on a couple of minutes later the parking brake light came on, not it's on all the time and it has a message to check the stabilitrak and brake system. I went online to check if I could find a solution to it and found numerous cases on GM models. There's gotta be a recall for this!! I don't want to be driving and my brakes go out on me, I have a toddler in the car with me all the time!! here are a few of the forums I found with similar problems.
