The airbag system on my 2020 GMC Terrain has an intermittent malfunction. The airbag warning light turns on and off and the diagnostic code B0014 has been identified by a dealership. When the warning light is on, the airbag system may not deploy properly in a crash, creating a safety risk. The vehicle has approximately 49,000 miles. The problem has occurred for about three years. The dealership repaired the issue when the vehicle was first purchased and the light went off temporarily, but it returned a few months later. A second dealership attempted a repair and again the light went off temporarily before returning. The issue continues to occur intermittently. The warning lamp for the airbag system appears on the dashboard. The vehicle has been inspected by dealerships but the problem has not been permanently fixed.

MY AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT/DASHBOARD MESSAGE HAS COME ON 7 TIMES IN THE LAST 3 WEEKS, ALONG WITH 4 OTHER TIMES IN THE 2 MONTHS PRIOR, BUT THE GMC DEALERSHIP WILL NOT INVESTIGATE SINCE IT DOES NOT STAY ON. AT THE MOST RECENT EVENT THIS WEEKEND, I PRESSED ONSTAR, AND THEY RAN DIAGNOSTICS AND EMAILED ME THE "B0085" DETECTED ERROR CODE, BUT MY DEALERSHIP WILL STILL NOT INVESTIGATE, SINCE THE LIGHT WENT OUT. THE LIGHT HAS COME ON AT STARTUP AND WHILE DRIVING. WARNINGS HAVE COME ON 8/27/20, 10/5, 10/8, 10/12, 111/28, 12/2, 12/8(X2), 12/11, 12/14, AND 12/19/20.
General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2020-2023 Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain vehicles. The four rear-seat lower child seat LATCH anchorage bars may have excessive powder coating, which could prevent a child seat from being installed with the anchorage bars. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 225, "Child Restraint Anchorage Systems."
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: The inability to install a child seat with the LATCH anchorage bars could result in an unsecured child seat, increasing the risk of injury in a crash.
Remedy: Owners are advised to install child seats using the vehicle's rear seat belts until the remedy is complete. Dealers will inspect the latch anchorage bars, and remove and replace the finish, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 2, 2023. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020 or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is N232403240.

The start/stop accumulator endcap may have missing bolts.
Consequence & remedy
