2013 Chevrolet Captiva

THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND A PART HAS GONE BAD. THIS VEHICLE ISN'T THAT OLD FOR PARTS TO GO BAD SINCE AIRBAGS SYSTEMS ARE GOOD FOR A LONG TIME. I'VE SEEN OTHERS HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE AIRBAGS AND THIS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED BECAUSE AIRBAGS ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN A FAMILY VEHICLE. ALSO JUST LIKE THE OTHERS, I'VE HAD ISSUES WITH MY RADIO AND LIGHTENING IN THE INSIDE. THE RADIO GOES ON AND OFF AND THE LIGHTS KEEP DIMMING THEN GOING BRIGHT AGAIN. ALL OF THIS OCCURS REGARDLESS IF I'M MOVING OR PARKED. THE AIR BAG LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING AND GOING SINCE LAST YEAR.

I OWN A 2013 CAPTIVA, ON A REGULAR BASIS I TURN OFF THE VEHICLE AND AM UNABLE TO TAKE THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR AROUND 6 MONTHS. I READ MANY, MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND JUST WANT IT FIXED, HOWEVER MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY @ A LITTLE OVER 70000 MILES ON IT. THIS ISN'T SOMETHING I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY TO GET FIXED IF I CAN SIT HERE ON MY COMPUTER AND READ ABOUT IT HAPPENING TO OTHERS 100'S IF NOT 1000'S OF TIMES! THERE ARE ALSO POINTS WERE THE ENGINE JUST ABOUT STALLS OUT, IT HAPPENS MOSTLY WHEN JUST PARKED BUT THERE ARE TIMES THAT IT SEEMS TO ACT LIKE IT WILL DIE WHEN DRIVIN. NOT TO MENTION IT ALWAYS MOMENTARILY LOSES POWER WHEN ACCELERATING, USUALLY AROUND 20 MILES AN HOUR. THERE IS ALSO AN ISSUE WITH THE CLIMATE CONTROLS, IT NEVER MAKES THE TEMPERATURE YOU CHOSE, IF IT'S ON DEFROST IT BLOWS HOT AIR NO MATTER WHAT AND MOST OF THE OTHER SETTINGS BLOW COLD AIR. I NEVER REALLY GET A TEMPERATURE TO BE COMFORTABLE.

WHEN TRYING TO START THE VEHICLE THE KEY WON'T TURN TO START THE CAR. HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 12 TIMES. CALLED AAA TO START IT. MECHANIC HAD HARD TIME STARTING THE VEHICLE. HAS TO PUSH ON BRAKE SO HARD THAT I CAN'T DO IT. HE SAID THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING. HE HAD DIFFICULT TIME. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR. I WANT THIS REPORTED AND SOMETHING DONE. SOMETHING IS DEFECTIVE. ALSO THE BUMPER PAINT IS ALL CHIPPED WHERE IT ATTACHES TO THE BODY THE WHOLE WAY AROUND ON ONE BUMPER. THIS IS A DEFECT ALSO. NO WAY SHOULD THESE TWO PROBLEMS BE HAPPENING!! I ALSO WANT TO KNOW IF THERE IS A RECALL ON THE AIR BAG PROBLEM?
