MY 2009 BUICK LACROSSE CX AT 23,129 MILES HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT BLINKING FROM OFF TO ON, IT ALSO HAD THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG ICON ON THE DRIVERS SIDE DASH. IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY SO THE PPS MODULE WAS REPLACED, THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN IN APRIL 2014 WITH UNDER 34,000 MILES. AGAIN THE PPS MODULE WAS REPLACED. COUNTING THE PPS MODULE THAT CAME IN THE CAR WHEN IT WAS NEW THAT BURNED OUT, THE ONE THAT REPLACED THAT BURNED OUT , IT NOW HAS IT'S 3 RD. PPS MODULE. I BELIEVE IT IS CAUSED BY THE AFTER MARKET LEATHER SEAT COVERS THAT WERE PUT ON AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE, ESPECIALLY SINCE THERE WERE RECALLS IN THE PAST FOR THAT VERY PROBLEM. I HAVE ASK GM TO BUY BACK THE SEAT COVERS BUT, THEY SEEM TO BE IGNORING ME. IT SEEMS NO ONE ELSE IN THE COUNTRY IS HAVING THIS PROBLEM. *TR
