Air bag sensor: There are hundreds of Solstice owners such as my self, driving with the seat belt sensor light illuminated. There is a problem with the seat sensor and dealers want up to $1,500 to replace the seat sensor. This is a known problem and a safety issue that GM should handle thru a voluntary recall. It is a problem known world-wide regarding this issue.

This the second time within a year the passenger seat sensor has failed. Last time I had the dealer (gary lang auto group) diagnose the problem with and reset the new sensor which I purchased form a GM vendor and installed myself. It still cost me $600 !!!! since then I have met a GM tech who will reset the new sensor which I will again buy and install, and have him reset the sensor as a tech 2 is needed to do so. This is unacceptable, and I do not know why you are not investigating this safety issue. If you take the time to look at other kappa complaints you will see it is widespread, considering how many were built from 2006 to 2009. Even though now I have a GM tech as a friend, it is still going to cost me almost $500 to repair. Ridiculous.

An alert on the dash to service air bag came on. Apparently a switch went causing the passenger side air bag to fail to activate properly. This light was when stationary and when driving. The repair was over $700 at parks Chevrolet in charlotte, nc.

Passenger air bag seat cushion sensor failed after 47,000 miles. I rarely have a passenger in that seat.

- Rogers, AR, USA

The air bag / seatbelt warning light came on for the passenger side, my wife was in the seat and weighs more than 100lb. I'm told this disables the airbag, which is clearly a safety issue. Repairs are very expensive and with only 26000 miles on this car should be covered by GM. It was repaired on 9/3/15 and cost $1130.21

The 'serviceairbag' light began to appear at different times for short periods. I the GM dealer said that their diagnostic tests could not identify the problem and would require that the service light be on continuously. July of 2015 the light did stay on and the dealership said that the passenger side 'module' had shorted. A replacement would cost approximately $450.

Passenger seat sensor for airbags failed intermittently, now it's completely broken. This is a common problem for Pontiac Solstice and Saturn sky owners (according to the forums). But given the low number of vehicles produced by GM, it doesn't seem to be getting recall status...

The passenger (service) airbag light has come on and remains on at all times. The light which says that the passenger airbag has been armed no longer illuminates. From the research I have done, it is a problem with the airbag sensor which must be replaced. The part is very expensive and breaks easily. I am worried that not only is there a chance that the passenger airbag may not deploy during an accident but that if I do get the part replaced, it will soon break again. This is a very common problem and I believe this is a major safety concern that needs to be addressed right away! there have been too many complaints about this part, which systematically goes out on every car, for this issue to be ignored!

The air bag / seatbelt warning light came on for the passenger side, my wife was in the seat and weighs more than 100lb. I'm told this disables the airbag, which is clearly a safety issue. Repairs are very expensive and with only 26xxx miles on this car should be covered by GM.

Service air bag warning came on dic. Researched several Pontiac Solstice, as well as Saturn sky and opel GT, forums that address the passenger presence system module, GM P/N 19124219, as the common failure. This is an extremely expensive repair for a well documented high failure rate safety part.

Backing out of my garage, the service air bag light came on for the passenger air bag..the passenger air bag light stays on showing this air bag is not working.I feel like this is a safety issue with passenger air bag not working, I called on star and they gave me a code B0081 saying I should a take to dealer. I called Pontiac and they told me unless there is a recall, the cost to repair is on me.looks like many other owners on 2007 Pontiac Solstice are having the same problem.I purchased this car new, it stays in the garage, not driven much and very seldom anyone in passenger seat.

Air bag service light keeps coming on. This occurs at random times, not just went starting the car. Wanting to know if other Pontiac Solstices are having the same problem and if this will be part of the air bag recall.

The airbag seat sensor has failed and rendered the passanger side airbag non-working. The repair is in the range of $1,000, so I have no choice but to drive without an airbag.

Passenger activated instrument panel icon "service passenger seat air bag." Took vehicle to dealer and they replaced the passenger seat module #1924219 for $362.47 (our half) GM picked up the other half. Again on 5/27/2015, 33,612 miles same condition occurred. Took the vehicle back to the dealer and this time the same module costs us $1,02 9.21. GM feels not their problem" this is my wife's vehicle and rarely is a passenger in the seat! the dealer cannot tell us if the airbag will deploy when the light is on? can you tell us if GM has a defective module problem"

Passenger airbag sensor failure.

- La Center , WA, USA

The passenger presence module located in passenger seat failed. This causes the passenger air bag to be turned off. Failure was at 17000 miles. GM replaced the module under the GM goodwill program. No cost to me. The replacement module has failed after only 13000 miles. This time GM says there is nothing they can do to cover replacement of the failed part. Replacement cost for parts and labor is 700.00
