When someone sits in the passenger seat the airbag light/alarm goes on and off. My mechanic said I would need to take it to the dealer. I called dealer and they would need to diagnose if it is the seat belt or the seat weight sensor. Can cost upwards of $900. I just can't afford that. They should recall since I've researched…

They should recall since I've researched so many complaints on this issue.

I RECEIVED A LETTER IN THE MAIL IN 2015 REGARDING THE ADJUSTABLE SEAT FOR THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER SEATS. THE RECALL INVOLVED A PROBLEM IN WHICH THE SEAT WAS FALLEN TO THE LOWEST POSITION. WHEN I RECEIVED THE LETTER, I DID NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS, BUT IN MY ATTEMPT TO BE RESPONSIBLE I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP. RECENTLY I FACED THE PROBLEM, THE LEVER TO ADJUST THE INCLINE OF THE SEAT IS STUCK, AND MY SEAT IS IN ITS LOWEST POSITION. IT'S INCLINED ALL THE WAY TO THE BACK. I CONTACTED GM AND THEY SAID THE REPAIR WAS GOING TO BE COVERED THROUGH THE RECALL, SO I MADE AN APPOINTMENT AND TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP. MY CAR WAS IN THE DEALER FOR 1 1/2 WEEKS, AND IT WAS NOT REPAIRED. I RECEIVED A TEXT AND THEY SAID IT WAS GOING TO COST ME $381 TO REPAIR. THEN I CONTACT THE HEADQUARTERS OF GM AND THEY EXPLAINED MY CAR WAS NOT GOING TO BE FIXED BECAUSE IT WAS CHECKED BACK IN 2015 (WHEN IT WORKED FINE). THEN THEY SAID THEY WERE GOING TO CONTACT ME IN 3 BUSINESS DAYS TO PROVIDE ME WITH A COUPON TO LOWER THE PRICE OF THE REPAIR. TODAY I RECEIVED A CALL FROM ANOTHER REPRESENTATIVE AND SHE MENTIONED THEY DO NOT OFFER COUPONS. I ASKED EVERYONE FOR A WRITTEN STATEMENT EXPLAINING WHY MY CAR WAS NOT REPAIR AND THEY DID NOT PROVIDE IT; THEREFORE, I PLEASE ASK FOR YOUR HELP TO WORK THROUGH THIS RECALL AND GET MY CAR REPAIRED. FORTUNATELY, WHEN MY SEAT GOT STUCK IN ITS LOWER POSITION DUE TO THE LEVER NOT WORKING THE CAR WAS STATIONARY; HOWEVER, IT'S UNSAFE TO DRIVE THE CAR WITHOUT HAVING A SEAT BACKREST.

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2011-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal and Chevrolet Camaro, as well as certain 2010-2012 Cadillac SRX, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain vehicles, equipped with power height adjustable driver and passenger seats. In the affected vehicles, the bolt that secures the driver's and passenger's power front seat height adjuster may fall out causing the seat to drop suddenly to the lowest vertical position.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the driver's seat unexpectedly drops, the distraction and altered seat position may affect the drivers' control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the height adjuster shoulder bolts, free of charge. The manufacturer distributed interim letters to owners on September 11, 2014. The recall began on December 26, 2014. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-521-7300 (Buick), 1-800-458-8006 (Cadillac), 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), or 1-800-462-8782 (GMC). GM's number for this recall is 14271.
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling all 2010-2014 Chevrolet Camaro vehicles manufactured December 3, 2008 to May 23, 2014. In the affected vehicles, the driver may accidentally hit the ignition key with their knee, unintentionally knocking the key out of the run position, turning off the engine.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the key is not in the run position, the air bags may not deploy if the vehicle is involved in a crash, increasing the risk of injury. Additionally, a key knocked out of the run position could cause loss of engine power, power steering, and power braking, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will remove the key blade from the original flip key/RKE transmitter assemblies, and provide two new keys and two key rings per key. The recall began August 25, 2014. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is 14294. Note: Until the recall has been performed, it is very important that drivers adjust their seat and steering column to allow clearance between their knee and the ignition key.
