2012 Chevrolet Captiva Sport

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING AND THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTIONS, HE HIT THE BREAKS AND CAME TO A QUICK STOP AND THE VEHICLE FROM BEHIND BUMPED HIM AT ABOUT 20 MILES AN HOUR. IT SET OFF THE AIRBAG DASH LIGHT, BUT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED A PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING WHEEL CANISTER OR COIL FOR THE AIRBAG, AND A REAR SENSOR IN THE BUMPER OF THE VEHICLE. I AM WONDERING IF THIS IS RELATED TO THE TAKATA AIR BAG RECALL. IT HAS NOT HAD A CAR ACCIDENT SINCE WE HAVE OWNED IT IN 2017. I AM UNSURE WHEN THIS HAPPENED. IT WAS IN THE LAST YEAR.

TAKATA RECALL-I BOUGHT MY 2012 CHEVROLET CAPTIVA LS IN MARCH 2013. ON JUNE 20, THE CAR WENT ON A TRIP TO BRANSON, MO.WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE AC STARTED BLOWING DRY VAPOR FROM THE VENTS-NO COLD AIR. ALSO THE LIGHT FOR THE SHIFTING GEARS P,N,R &D WAS NOT WORKING. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE SHOP. NO PROB. FOUND. THEN ON JULY 6, 2014,THE CAR WENT TO WISCONSIN. I HAD THE CAR N SHOP ON JULY 2 BEFORE THE TRIP TO MAKE SURE THAT AC WAS WORKING GOOD. THEY SAID THAT THEY FOUND NO PROB. WHILE ON THE TRIP THE AC DID THE SAME THING-NO AC & THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ON TO B SERVICED. THEN ON APRIL 2016, THE CAR WENT TO FLORIDA. THE AC ACTED UP AGAIN- DRY VAPORS FROM AC VENTS & NO COOL AIR. THE DRIVER LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD & SAW THAT THE ALUM. PIPE TO THE AC HAD ICE ON IT. THE AC HAD FROZEN UP. HE ALSO SAID THAT WHEN DRIVING THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY, THE RPMS ARE HIGHER THAN WHEN THE CAR IS DRIVEN IN TOWN OR WITHIN 30 MIN. ON HIGHWAY SO THE AC PROB. DOESN'T HAPPEN. THE DRIVER IS A MECHANIC. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP ON APRIL 18, 2016 TO MAKE AN APPT. TO GET THEM TO FIX THE AC. ALSO THE DASH LIGHT COMES ON TO SAY SERVICE THE AIR BAG. HOPEFULLY IT WILL B FIXED THIS TIME, THE 3RD TIME! AS OF THIS DATE, I HAVE NO APPT.

WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE WHEN MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. IT STAYED ON FOR 8 MILES THEN SWITCHED OFF. I WAS DOING APPROX 68 MPH WHEN IT CAME ON, TURNED OFF WHEN I SLOWED DOWN AT 50 FOR ROAD CONSTRUCTION. HAD JUST PICKED THE VEHICLE UP FROM THE DEALER THAT MORNING AFTER HAVING A REAR AXLE BOOT/SHAFT SOMETHING LIKE THAT REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY.
