The service air bag soon light came on months before the national recall was announced. It is still on, yet my 2005 is not included in the recall. How am I supposed to get my truck through state inspection with that light on? it should be included in the recall.
I have had a "service air bag" light on for several years now. I have owned the truck since new and it has never been in an accident. From what I have heard it is a driver's side airbag connection issue and if there is an accident the airbag won't activate. After reading about the recall on the 2007 models on up I was surprised and disappointed that my year is not involved in that recall as it sounds like the same safety defect. Mileage on my truck is only 81,000 miles. The truck was stationary and just started when the light first came on and it's been on ever since.
Low mileage 2005 truck. At just under 50,000 miles passenger airbag dash light came on (Nov. 2018). Performed protocol according to manual and it turned off. Came back on same day after moving passenger seat to clean. Dealership in missoula Montana claimed needed passenger airbag replacement, cost over $800. Admitted not a problem mechanically that would affect the truck if did not replace. After reading on this site the reliability of the air bags in this truck, not worth it to me. Mileage today March 2019 little under 51,000.

Light comes on which reads "check passenger air bag". this light comes on when vehicle is started and then remains illuminated until the engine is shut off. Various dealerships and vehicle repair shops have indicated that parts for the air bags are faulty and need to be replaced. These same repair locations have indicated that the air bags will not activate in case of a accident.
This truck has been garaged since new. Never been in an accident. A few weeks ago the service airbag message came on. I don't believe I should have to fork out money for something that should last the life of the truck.
When I purchased my truck the dealership promised to have it fixed, I then went to the nc dmv who handles vehicle. I had been receiving the runaround from everyone. I am sure it has been in a flood that I was not informed about due to all the rust underneath the vehicle. When I purchased it was stationary at a private dealership in a city next to a highway.

The service airbag light came on and stays on the milage was about 65000 miles its looks to me like this is a common problem with this truck it is a 2005 Chevy Silverado 1500 ls, you would think Chevrolet would fix this problem.
The air bag warning came on disabling drivers air bag. After checking this out I found this was a real common problem in this age Silverado. Problem is a sensor that cost 400$ to repair at dealer. If this is a common problem shouldn't GM fix the defect at their cost" how many owners of this age truck opt not to have this defect fixed due to cost" this endangers owners and passengers and GM should be liable.

Front to rear 5 car collision, causing me to hit a vehicle and then a high curb and drainage grate, front damage to my truck is severe and my truck will require over $8,000, my insurance company will probably call the truck a total loss...my airbags did not deploy.
