2010 Chevrolet Camaro air bags problems

“I was in an accident with a friend in [XXX] We weren't doing over 30 to 35 miles per hour when we hit a deer. All I could remember was yelling because my wrist was broken and I had bone coming out from the air bags that deployed on my side of the car. The wind shield was cracked because of this as well. My friend had to jump out of the car to disconnect the battery because the car would not shut off or stop moving. The brake and parking brake was used but couldn't get it to stop. My friend had to crawl out the side window by them to let me out of the car because neither door opened to let us out. My friend was hurt as well but not as bad as my wrist. The er doctor told me since my wrist never healed or would ever heal correctly. That iwould have to go see a hand specialist to do surgery and put pins in but wasn't a guarantee fix. Till this day I have trouble working if it requires me to pick up heavy things with that hand because I just feel the pain and how it feels like it wants to come apart. This happened in bandera Texas on [XXX]. I did make a police report and even claimed it on my insurance. I was told the car was totaled due to cost of the air bags…”

“The passenger seat airbag indicates OFF on the status display inside the car. I have tried turning it on using the button on the status display with no success.”

“January 2023.. Structural Crack in the air bag dash location/passenger side...Looking at it more closely the crack continues in a perfect oval pattern. As of yet the car component in question has not been inspect by a dealer or others. When sitting back in the front passenger seat i can see that the dash is humped up in just that area..the oval area. This oval area is just above the word air bag on the face of the dash. My concern is that if this is the airbag it could deploy and injury myself and others and cause a serious accident. the car has approximately 74,000 miles on it”

“It doesn’t matter if someone is in the passenger seat or not, the airbag light keeps coming on on my dashboard saying that the passenger airbag has been disabled. The light will keep turning on and off even when someone is not in the passenger seat.”

“When driving I keep getting a airbag warning notification on for the passenger side saying there's an issue. And now my driver's seat is stuck all the way forward and won't recline. I can't even drive the vehicle now because the seat won't move back to get behind the wheel. I don't know what to do!”

“THE AIRBAG ALERT LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND OFF. THIS HAPPENS STATIONARY, MOVING, WHEN SOMEONE IS THE SEAT OR NOT, ON BUMPY ROADS, AND ALL SPEEDS. I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC, WHO SAID IT'S THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT THAT NEEDS REPLACING. HE SUGGESTED I GO TO THE DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE IT. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME $800 TO FIX IT. I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING MEANWHILE AND THIS LOOKS LIKE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 2010 CAMARO. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY I WOULD BE ASKED TO PAY THAT MUCH TO FIX SOMETHING THAT ISN'T MY FAULT AND IN FACT APPEARS TO BE A MANUFACTURING ERROR. ON TOP OF THAT, THE DEALERSHIP WANTS TO CHARGE ME $150 TO DIAGNOSE WHAT I TOLD THEM WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN!!!!”
