2008 Chevrolet Aveo

I WAS REAR ENDED AND IT WAS NOT A BAD ACCIDENT BUT NEEDED A BUMPER AND I NOTICED THAT AFTER THIS HAPPENED MY AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT CAME ON. WHEN WE TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR REPAIR I TOLD THE TECHNICIAN THAT I WAS MORE CONCERNED ABOUT THE AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT THEN THE BUMPER. THEY SAID THEY WOULD LOOK AT IT. WHEN WE PICKED UP OUR VEHICLE THEY SAID THEY LOOKED AT THE AIRBAG LIGHT SENSOR AND RESET IT. NOW 6 MONTHS LATER THE LIGHT IS BACK ON. I TOOK IT BACK AND THEY SUGGESTED I CHECK ON THE INTERNET FOR ANY RECALLS. I DID NOT SEE ANY. CAN YOU SUGGEST ANYTHING. I FEEL THAT THEY DID NOT REALLY PROPERLY CHECK OUT THE SENSOR LIGHT OR TO MAKE SURE THE AIRBAG IS OK.

THE DRIVER SIDE HEAD LAMP IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE WIRE LIGHTING HARNESS KEPT SHORTING OUT, I HAD IT REPAIRED AT A SHOP. IT LATER MELTED AND THE LIGHT WENT OUT. I TRIED TO ORDER ANOTHER ON, BUT THE DEALERSHIP ONLY SELLS THE WHOLE KIT NOT JUST THE LIGHT BULB ITSELF. I AM HAVING TO PAY OVER $300 FOR A NEW KIT WHEN ALL I NEEDED WAS A BULB AND THE HARNESS. THIS IS INSANE, ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS FOR THIS VERY SAME PROBLEM. I ALSO HAD AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WHERE MY CAR BATTERY WOULD DRAIN, AND LOSE POWER.
