| Tl*the contact owns a 2007 chevrolet suburban 1500. the contact stated that the stabilitrack warning light continued to illuminate on the instrument panel. the vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. while driving 40 mph, all six side curtain air bags deployed without impact or rollover. she was unable to see out any of the windows and the passenger compartment became filled with smoke from the air bag debris. the contact was injured. the dealer found no failures with the vehicle. the insurance company sent a crash team to investigate the failure and they stated that although there was no recall, the air bag sensors were too sensitive and would activate without warning. they also stated that they observed several similar instances with the same model vehicle. the failure and current mileages were 24,000. | |||

| The sensor for the passenger side airbag on our 2007 chevrolet suburban does not function properly with a small adult weighing between 105 and 115 pounds sitting in the seat. the airbag continually switches back and forth from on to off on a trip. my wife will try to find a position where the airbag is on, only to notice several minutes later it is again off. *jb | |||
