2007 Chevrolet Equinox Air Bags

Dashboard shows service passenger air bag. Yes available for inspection Passenger safety at risk. Not confirmed by dealer Has not been inspected

My passenger airbag doesn't pick up when someone is sitting in it and says service airbag. Chevrolet had recalls on them but not in my state. Now no one has to be in the seat and it will flash service airbag and the light on the dash stays on. I can't afford to fix it myself and think Chevrolet is responsible for the fix.

Passenger seat airbag is malfunctioning. It won't also sense that a passenger is seating in the seat. I am referring to a full grown adult and not a young child, so weight is not an issue and it should sense someone occupying the seat. The airbag will turn off and on while driving with the passenger seat occupied. When this happens, the service airbag system message comes across the dash as well as the red airbag light. This is a very serious safety issue that needs to be looked into. A passenger could get seriously injured or possibly die in the event of an accident, as the airbag won't deploy. First noticed the issue a few months ago and it seems to be happening more frequently.

The airbag on the passenger side of my 2007 Chevrolet Equinox LS. Has never worked correctly. I purchase my 2007 Chevrolet Equinox LS coming up on 2 year's ago. Since I purchased my car the passenger side air bag has never worked correctly. Sometimes it would turn on maybe 5% of the time I had a passenge. The 95% it doesn't come on and says service air bag. Now the service air bag is staying on. Chevrolet had a big recall on the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox for 2 or 3 problems with the passenger air bag. I can not afford to pay for this myself. I feel Chevrolet should pay for the fix. I am scared to drive my Equinox because I don't know if it is going to deploy while I'm driving. I had reported this on KKB more then once. I would greatly appreciate some information on how I can make Chevrolet pay for the fix. Thank you for your time

MY AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND STAYING ON 90% OF THE TIME AND WHEN I HAVE PASSENGER THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DOESN'T TURN ON

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR WAS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. IT WOULD SOMETIMES NOT REGISTER IF SOMEONE WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT OR NOT. THEN THE SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND HAS STAYED ON. THIS MEANS THAT THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY IN CASE OF A CRASH. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. I LOOKED UP TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON IT. THERE ISN'T AN OPEN RECALL ON MY PARTICULAR VIN NUMBER BUT THERE IS ON SOME OF THE SAME MODEL. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER OWNERS OF 2007 CHEVY EQUINOXES. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM AND SHOULD HAVE A RECALL ISSUED FOR IT. THE REPAIR COST IS ABOUT $1000.

MY CHEVY EQUINOX LT HAS THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT ON. IT SAYS IT NEEDS TO BE SERVICED BUT MY CAR DOESN'T FALL UNDER THE RECALL. I PURCHASED THIS CAR OFF OF SOMEONE, THERE HAS BEEN NO ACCIDENT REPORTS. IT JUST SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. MY CAR ONLY HAS 98,000 MILES.IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE COVERED BY CHEVY.

WE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS AS SO MANY EQUINOX OWNERS ARE WITH PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SEAT SENSOR. THIS PROBLEM IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. WHY WAIT FOR MORE PEOPLE TO BE INJURED OR WORSE AND DEMAND GM ADDRESS THIS ISSUE ONCE AND FOR ALL.

THE PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG DOES NOT TURN ON WHEN A PASSENGER IS SITTING IN THE SEAT. SOMETIMES IT WILL TURN ON AND OFF WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT.

TAKATA RECALL. ON MARCH 29TH 2015 I WAS INVOLVED IN A AUTO ACCIDENT. AS A RESULT OF THAT ACCIDENT, I SUFFERED A BROKEN WRIST, BROKEN JAW, AND THE LOSS OF MY LEFT EYE. ALL OF THESE INJURIES WERE THE RESULT OF MY VEHICLES AIRBAG SYSTEM. IN THE ACCIDENT, NONE OF MY WINDOWS WERE BROKEN, THERE WERE NO LOOSE ITEMS IN THE VEHICLE. THE ONLY THING IN THE VEHICLE THAT HIT ME WAS THE AIRBAG AND ITS IS THE ONLY THING WHICH HAD BLOOD ON IT IN THE VEHICLE. I WAS WEARING MY SEATBELT AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY (ATLANTIC CITY EXPRESSWAY) WHEN A TURNPIKE COMMISSION VEHICLE MADE A U-TURN AND TURNED UP IN FRONT OF ME LEADING TO THE ACCIDENT. MY VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING ON A FLAT HIGHWAY AT NIGHT, ON A STRAIGHT SECTION OF ROAD AT THAT TIME. I WAS THEN TRAPPED INSIDE MY VEHICLE FOR AN HOUR UNTIL RESCUE WORKERS HAD TO CUT ME OUT SO THAT I COULD BE FLOWN TO THE NEAREST TRAUMA UNIT. MY YEAR VEHICLE IS ALSO THE SAME YEAR THAT ALL OTHER CHEVY VEHICLES (AVALANCHE, SILVERADO LD/HD, TAHOE, AND SUBURBON) ON THE RECALL STARTED WHICH IS 2007. MY CHEVY EQUINOX WHICH IS ALSO IN THEIR SUV / TRUCK LINEUP IS NO DIFFERENT FROM THOSE AND USED THE SAME AIRBAG, TAKATA.

PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AND WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN PASSENGER SEAT THE AIRBAG DISPLAY ON DASH WILL GO ON AND OFF. THE SENSOR DOESN'T DETECT ALL THE TIME THAT A PASSENGER IS SITTING IN THE SEAT.

PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG SENSOR DOES NOT DETECT WHEN AN OCCUPANT IS IN THE SEAT, SO THE AIRBAG IS ALWAYS OFF. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR SEVERAL MONTHS.

THIS VEHICLE WAS SUPPOSEDLY REPAIRED IN A PREVIOUS RECALL, HOWEVER THE ISSUE WITH THE PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG SENSOR PERSISTS. RECENTLY IT IS INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TO GET THE SENSOR TO WORK FOR THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER, AND IT GOES ON AND OFF AS THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN. EITHER THE REPAIR WAS NOT ADEQUATE TO COMPLETELY RESOLVE THE PROBLEM OR NOT ACTUALLY COMPLETED.

THE PASSENGERS SIDE AIRBAG WILL NOT STAY ON WHEN NO MATTER WHO ON IT, DOESN'T NOT POP ANY CODES OR ANYTHING. HAVE TAKEN IT TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS STILL NOTHINGS SAYS IT'S WORKING FINE. WHICH IT ISN'T, NOT SAFE AT ALL

MY DAUGHTERS 2007 EQUINOX , HAS THE WELL KNOWN, PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR FAILURE PROBLEM. IN.CASE OF AN ACCIDENT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY. THIS IS AN $800 +/- FIX. SEVERAL THOUSAND EQUINOX, TORRENT, SATURN AND OTHER GM CARS BUILT ON THIS PLATFORM ARE AFFECTED. SEVERAL MODEL YEARS SUFFER FROM THIS AILMENT. "FAILURE OF THE AIR BAG TO DEPLOY CAN RESULT IN INCREASED INJURIES OR DEATH." THE SATURN SKY AND PONTIAC SOLSTICE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM AND IT WAS CORRECTED RECENTLY UNDER RECALL. IT IS MY OPINION THAT THESE VEHICLES SHOULD BE RECALLED AND THIS PROBLEM CORRECTED.

WHEN ADULT PASSENGER SITTING IN RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, THE AIR BAG LIGHT DOESNT TURN ON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, BOTH THE FRONT AND REAR DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE CURTAIN AIR BAGS DEPLOYED WITHOUT WARNING OR AN IMPACT. THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER SUSTAINED AN ABRASION TO THE NECK THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL TREATMENT. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE LOCAL DEALER (JD BYRIDER, 20941 EUCLID AVE, EUCLID OH) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 95,000.

PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR DOES NOT REGISTER WITH AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE. BROUGHT IT TO CHEVY FOR REPAIR. 600 BUCKS LATER AND A NEW SENSOR, AIRBAG STILL ISN'T RESPONDING. CHEVY TELLS ME I NEED A NEW AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE FOR 700 BUCKS, HAD ALREADY SPENT 1300 ON THAT VISIT. AIRBAG DOES NOT REGISTER PASSENGER, COMPUTER WILL NOT RESET AND SYNC WITH CONTROL MODULE. THIS SHOULDN'T REQUIRE THE ENTIRE MODULE TO BE REPLACED, NOR SHOULD I HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS SINCE THIS I'VE HEARD/READ NUMEROUS CASES ALL DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE ON THE SAME MODEL AND APPARENTLY GM REFUSES TO RECALL (ASIDE FROM THE AIRBAG REPROGRAM WHEN IT FIRST RELEASED) HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM A DEALER, WHO SAID THEY FIXED IT BEFORE I PICKED IT UP. DOES WORK INTERMITTENTLY, WHEN A LARGER PERSON SITS THERE, AIR BAG DOES REGISTER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO A CONCRETE EMBANKMENT TO AVOID COLLIDING WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAG FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER AND LEFT ARM THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED TO A TOW LOT. THE CONTACT CALLED ALLEN TILLERY AUTO (LOCATED AT 4573 CENTRAL AVE, HOT SPRING, AR 71913, (501) 881-4160) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE AIR BAG SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED SINCE IT WAS JUST INSTALLED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 135,000.

AIRBAG DOES NOT ALWAYS TURN ON FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE WHEN PASSENGER IS SITTING THERE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY AND THEN REMAINED LIT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MILDENBERGER MOTORS (1717 N 1ST ST, HAMILTON, MT 58940, 406-626-3050), BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 135,000.

AT 100,000 MILES, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR FAILED AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO INDICATE THAT THE AIRBAG WAS NOT ACTIVE, EVEN WHEN A PASSENGER WAS IN THE FRONT, PASSENGER SEAT. I TOOK IT TO THE AUTHORIZED DEALER AND REFERENCED # 07V344000 RECALL BUT WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN DID NOT FALL WITHIN THE RECALL, DESPITE THE SIMILARITY OF THE ISSUES INVOLVED.

EVEN THOUGH MY VIN DOES NOT COME UP AS HAVING AN ISSUE WITH THE PASSENGER AIR BAG DETECTOR IN MY SEAT, IT DOES NOT DETECT WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE SEAT AND WILL NOT COME ON.

AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON ALL OF THE TIME. I TOOK IT TO RK CHEVY WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED FROM TO HAVE THE FUEL PUMP REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AND THEY DID NOTHING ABOUT AIR BAG LIGHT AND SAID DO NOT WORRY ABOUT IT.
