 The air bag sensor in my vehicle failed shortly after its 'bumper-to-bumper' warranty expired. any passenger in the car faces added risk if an accident were to occur. it is my understanding that the owner's cost to fix this item is prohibitive ($500 - $800), and that the early failure of this part is somewhat common for this vehicle. *tr

 I own a 2007 saturn sky and have for 31/2 years in that time there hasnt been anybody in the passenger seat maybe a total of 4 months. my passenger seat airbag sensor has already gone bad and i know on the skyroadster and the sollstice forums there have been several more. the sensor i think is made by nippondenso and installed on the 2006-2009 sky/solstice's i dont expect gm to spend a ton of money replacing them but they could at least come up with a mod so the airbag is on all the time or go after nippondenso for a inferior product. i really think they should last longer then a few months and want gm to do something about it!! thank you rick leslie email rick.leslie@delta.com cell 612-220-6531
