2011 Chevrolet Camaro Air Bags & Restraints Problems

I was driving home and a truck overpassed me on a loose sand area causing me to have to make a sudden brake and my car due to the loose sand and rocks sing around and hit a power pole and the impact to the power pole that was on the corner bounced me car back and my car did a flip and it landed on its front bumper and ultimately rolled over 4 times down a hill and landed on all four tires during the impact front airbags did not deploy my whole entire front dash board exploded and fragments flew everywhere once my car festered to roll the side airbags dropped but did not inflate, at the moment that my car hit the pole my driver seat physically came out of place and and even with my seat belt on it throw me to my backseat and caused the seat belt to me twisted around me, this same issue was allegedly fixed by three way Chevy I had made a report during the time frame of June2023 when three way failed to fix my recall and fraudulently reported the recall repaired yet said no work was done to my car I was in contact with u guys already and this is unfortunately proof that supports my initial report to you from 2023 and need this investigation reopened

When someone sits in the passenger seat the airbag light/alarm goes on and off. My mechanic said I would need to take it to the dealer. I called dealer and they would need to diagnose if it is the seat belt or the seat weight sensor. Can cost upwards of $900. I just can't afford that. They should recall since I've researched so many complaints on this issue.

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT COME ON THE DASHBOARD STATING REPAIRS NEEDED & REGARDLESS IF SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE SEAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT REMAINS 'OFF' IF THE VEHICLE IS MOVING OR STATIONARY. TODAY I WAS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WHILE MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING, THE AIRBAG WAS ON & ALL THE SUDDEN THE WARNING SOUND CHIMES & THE LIGHT WENT TO THE OFF POSITION.

THE 'SERVICE AIRBAG' NOTIFICATION KEEPS REPEATEDLY SHOWING ON MY DASHBOARD. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE PAST MONTH. THIS MESSAGE APPEARS WHETHER ANYTHING IS LOCATED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT OR NOT. MY LOCAL CHEVY DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THIS ISSUE 'WILL COST A COUPLE HUNDRED' TO REPAIR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET CAMARO. WHILE THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 35-40 MPH, THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE QUARTER PANEL OF HIS VEHICLE WAS STRUCK BY A HEAVY TRUCK. THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE SPUN OUT OF CONTROL, STRUCK AND RICOCHETED OFF A PICKUP TRUCK, STRUCK AND RICOCHETED OFF A GUARDRAIL, AND STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HIS LOWER BACK WAS SORE; HOWEVER, MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS NOT SOUGHT. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A BODY SHOP. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INSURANCE COMPANY HAD NOT DETERMINED IF THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 91,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

AROUND 60,000 MILES, THE 'SERVICE AIRBAG' WARNING BEGAN DISPLAYING FROM WHEN THE CAR IS STARTED UNTIL IT IS SHUT OFF. I AM INTERESTED IN SELLING THE VEHICLE, BUT WHEN I TOOK THE CAR IN TO A LOCAL DEALERSHIP, THEY SAID THEY WERE GOING TO TAKE "$2,000" OFF OF WHAT WOULD BE OFFERED FOR THE CAR BECAUSE OF THIS AIRBAG PROBLEM. WHEN RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM, IT SOUNDS TO BE A RELATIVELY COMMON PROBLEM THAT OTHERS ARE HAVING - BUT EVEN MORE CONCERNING, IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS ERROR MAY DEACTIVATE THE AIRBAG ALTOGETHER WHICH IS A CONSIDERABLE SAFETY CONCERN CONSIDERING I DON'T HAVE $2,000 TO PUT TOWARD THE CAR TO RESOLVE THIS ERROR.

AROUND 60,000 MILES, THE "SERVICE AIRBAG" WARNING WAS DISPLAYED ALONGSIDE THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON MY VEHICLE. THE WARNING IS DISPLAYING AT ALL SPEEDS AND WHENEVER THE VEHICLE IS TURNED ON. I AM TRYING TO SELL THE VEHICLE TO PURCHASE ANOTHER VEHICLE BUT WAS TOLD TODAY AT A LOCAL DEALERSHIP THAT THE VALUE OF MY TRADE-IN WOULD BE DECREASED BY $2,000 DUE TO THIS WARNING WHICH WOULD HAMPER ME FROM BEING ABLE TO AFFORD ANOTHER VEHICLE. I AM NOT ABLE TO AFFORD THIS $2,000, SO IT SEEMS AS THOUGH I AM DRIVING AROUND WITH A VEHICLE OF WHICH ITS AIRBAGS ARE NOT FUNCTIONING. I AM UNSURE WHAT MORE I CAN DO GIVEN THERE SEEMS TO BE MANY OTHERS WITH UNRESOLVED CONCERNS SIMILAR TO THIS.

SERVICE PASSENGER AIR BAG, WOULD NOT GO OFF. AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT KEEP COMING ON.

TAKATA RECALL INTERMITTENT SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT 1ST TIME SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON CAR ONLY HAD ABOUT 8K MILE DEALER FIX WAS A LOOSE CONNECTION 2ND TIME SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON THEN WENT OFF. 3RD TIME WAS ABOUT 3YRS AFTER 2ND INCIDENCE SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON DEALER FIX R&R SIDE IMPACT AIRBAG ASSEMBLY. $420.00 LABOR $425.00 PARTS TOTAL $907.13.

SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AND DEALER WANTS $99 FOR DIAGNOSTICS AND UP TO $700 TO FIX. FOUND OUT THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS AND A LAWSUIT SO IT SHOULD MAYBE BE A RECALL! THE CAR HADN'T BEN DRIVEN FROM OCTOBER 1ST UNTIL MAY 1ST BECAUSE IT WAS IN STORAGE AND THE LIGHT CAME ON THE MINUTE WE DROVE IT.

AROUND 100,000 MILES MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN AN ACCIDENT, THE LIGHT JUST CAME ON, WHILE DRIVING ONE DAY. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THE AIRBAG NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT AN EXPENSIVE PRICE. CURRENTLY RIDING AROUND IN A VEHICLE WITH FAULTY AIRBAGS FOR NO APPARENT REASON.

SERVICE AIRBAGS ALERT IS COMING ON. THE CONNECTORS HOLDING THE SENSORS TO THE SEAT BOTTOMS ARE LOOSE AND WHEN ADJUSTED, THE ALERT GOES OFF. CAR NOW HAS 40,954 MILES. ALERT COMES ON WHEN CAR IS STARTED.

DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 45 MPH SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT POPS AND STAYS ON AND THE PASSENGER LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WITH A PASSENGER IN THE CAR, 99,000 MILES

PASSENGER AIR BAG KEPT COMING ON AND STAYED ON

TWO DAYS AGO WHILE DRIVING THE SERVICE AIRBAG CAME ON. I WENT ONLINE TO RESEARCH ANY REASONS WHY AND FOUND THAT MANY OTHERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AROUND SAME MILEAGE, RIGHT AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRED. I ALSO NOTICED A LAWSUIT CONCERNING THE 2011 CAMARO AIRBAGS.01/07/2017. *TR

I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW AND HAS ABOUT 85000 MILES ON IT AND TOOK IT IN BECAUSE OF AIRBAG LIGHT BEING ON. I WAS TOLD PASSENGER PRESENT SENSOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED WHICH CAUSES AIRBAG LIGHT TO REMAIN ON WHEN CAR IS MOVING. THIS IS RIDICULOUS I LOOKED ABOUT THIS CLAIM AND THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF CAMAROS WITH THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE. THIS IS A $700 REPLACEMENT AND DOES NOT SIT WELL WITH ME AS I'VE ALWAYS BOUGHT CHEVYS AND NOT HAD ISSUES BEFORE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND IF I HAVE TO PAY $700 TO FIX A SAFETY ISSUE THAT WAS DEFECTIVE WITH THIS VEHICLE AND SEVERAL HUNDRED OTHERS THEN THIS IS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT THAT SHOULD NOT FALL ON CONSUMER TO GET IT REPLACED. LET ME KNOW WHAT CAN BE DONE HERE! THANKS *TR

I ORIGINALLY HAD TROUBLE WITH THE AIRBAG SENSOR IN 2013. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL DEALER WHO STATED THEY WHERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. THEY RESET THE SENSOR AND IT WAS FINE. NOW WITH THE VEHICLE OUT OF WARRANTY ANYTIME SOME ONE SITS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT THE SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT TURNS ON AND OFF THE WHOLE TIME I AM DRIVING. MOST RECENTLY IT HAS STARTED TURNING ON AND OFF EVEN WHEN NO ONE IS IN THE SEAT. RETURNED TO DEALER FOR REPAIR AND IT WILL BE $700 PLUS TO FIX. *TR

THE PASSENGER'S AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON THAT STATES THE BAG IS OFF. TOOK TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE SEAT SENSOR NEEDS REPLACED. CAR HAS 60000 MILES. CAME ON AROUND 52000. WAS TOLD THAT THE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOYED IF INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT UNLESS THE SENSOR WAS REPLACED. COST TO REPLACE $700.00. SEARCHED AND SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM ON THIS MAKE. RESEARCHED NHTSA WEB SITE AND THERE ARE CLOSE TO 200 COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME THING. DO NOT KNOW WHY NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED DO TO A SAFETY HAZARD. LIGHT IS ON WHERE MOVING OR PARKED.

AT ABOUT 34,000 MILES ON THE CAR, I STARTED GETTING INTERMITTENT CODES WHENEVER SOMEBODY WAS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT ABOUT THE AIRBAG NOT BEING ACTIVATED. AFTER SOME TIME THE CODE WAS STEADY AND NOW THE AIRBAG REMAINS DEACTIVATED AT ALL TIMES, EVEN IF SOMEONE SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I DID HAVE THIS DIAGNOSED AND IT CAME UP AS THE PASSENGER AIRBAG MODULE, THE REPLACEMENT COST IS APPROXIMATELY $1,000. I HAVE ALSO DISCOVERED THROUGH A RELATIVE THAT HAS ACCESS TO THE MECHANICS COMMUNICATION BOARD THAT ALTHOUGH IT COMES UP AS THE MODULE IT IS A KNOWN WIRING ISSUE. APPARENTLY THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN GOING ON THROUGH SEVERAL YEAR MODELS OF THE CAMARO. I DID REACH OUT TO CHEVROLET ABOUT THE PROBLEM HOWEVER THE ONLY HELP THAT THEY WOULD OFFER WAS TO CALL THE DEALERSHIP SO THE DEALERSHIP COULD CALL ME SO I CAN BRING IT IN AND HAVE IT FIXED. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND CHANGING THE MODULE DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AS IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE WIRING SYSTEM. I'M A LITTLE OUTRAGED THAT CHEVROLET HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND YET CONTINUES TO USE THE SAME SYSTEM IN OTHER YEAR MODELS AND CHOOSES TO DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. SO AT THIS MOMENT I AM DRIVING AROUND WITH OUT AN AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I'M NOT REALLY SURE WHY THEY HAVE NOT BEEN HELD ACCOUNTABLE ON SUCH A SAFETY ISSUE.
