 Service airbag message on dash. passenger airbag light off even when there is a person sitting on passenger side seat. dealer performed scan test. found codes b0081-71 in the sir. found code 1063 in pp module. dealer told me there was need to replace the passenger present module. part # 19124219, module ki 11.419. cost = $607.73 plus labor of $138.28. millage when replaced, 60,500. date of repair service, 1/25/2013. what is most concerning is: 1.) dozens of such occurrences of same nature for the pontiac solstice have been reported to nhtsa year after year and still no recall. 2.) how many cars have not been repaired because of the high cost of the part and owners are driving around without an operable passenger side airbag? this is a safety related failure. it is also related to a part that should never fail. the part failure and cost has reinforced my lack of confidence in the gm brand. unless i am eventually reimbursed, i will never buy another gm product for as long as i live. the absence of a recall brings into question the effectiveness of the regulatory mission of the nhtsa. if this doesn't qualify for a recall, what does?

 The passenger air bag status indicator light will not come on when a person sit in passenger seat. the airbag readiness light on the instument panel cluster is on the time and the service air bag display on the dic. the problem has to be in passenger seat system as it is separate from the driver seat. there has been a lot of problems this electrical and moduals with the passeger seat that could result a death in a crash. a lot of drivers have had complaints on this airbag hazard on all 06 thru 10 pontiac solstice noted in the soltice forum. please review the complains declare it recall. thank you
