The safety air bag is a critical safety system. My drivers dash warning light for the air bag system illuminated. I took it to the GM dealer who said after a 100 dollar diagnosis there was a resistor failure in the drivers air bag which would cost 1200 dollars. The air bag is a passive non moving device. It should not fail in a passive mode. How do they know it is not caused by the recalled defective cable assembly without taking the air bag out and examining the cable ?

The airbag light came on in the dashboard. I went to the dealer, bommarito in St. Louis, mo, who told me this airbag light was on with exactly the same issue described in the airbag recall, but my Vibe was not recalled for this issue.. it is a 2009 and the airbag light did come on. I called safecar.com where I was told that the issue was handed to a case worker who would contact me immediately. I still have not been contacted. I want to know who I should sue if I get in an accident and the airbag doesn't work. I need to inform my family in case I don't make it.

2 weeks ago my drivers side airbag warning light came on and has been staying on. I looked up on recall and saw that Toyota has a airbag recall affecting the cable switch to the airbag. 2009-2010 Vibe spiral electrical cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. It also says that Toyota has a improved part. It does make me nervous driving with this on. I took my car to [xxx] Buick they said they do not know anything about the recall and will fix it for 500 to 1,000 dollars. I talked to a [xxx] at the GM hot line. He said there is no recalls for my car. Information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
