What owners wrote
Tl- the contact owns a 2011 chevrolet camaro. The contact stated that a truck crashed into the front driver side of the vehicle and the air bags did not deploy. In addition, the seat belts did not restrain the contact properly. The contact sustained neck injuries from the crash. The vehicle was towed to the dealer for repairs but was not inspected for the air bag deployment failure. The failure and current mileages were unknown.
While driving on the highway or on city streets, the air bag light comes on an dings about every 20 seconds. I am able to stop the ding by pushing the button to disregard the message. It did this for about 2 weeks. It no longer dings but the air bag indicator light continuously stays lit and the "service airbag" light comes on when the car is started. 2011 camaro v6, 100,000 miles
