2006 Chevrolet AVEO Air Bags Frontal Sensor Control Module Problems, Complaints and Defects

Description of the problem	The air bag sensor light stays on while someone is riding in the passenger seat. According to the dealer if you weight between 80 and 120 lb. This may occur. However, it happens when my daughter who weights 140 lbs rides in the seat as well. This is a definitely safety hazard and needs to have a recall done. I have complained to the dealer since i purchased the car in jan 2006. In july they replaced the sensor, they replaced the seat bottom (the pattern did not match my interior) and it worked correctly. After ordering the correct pattern and installing in my car the problem continues to persist. It is an inconsistent problem. I can ride in the passenger seat to the store and the light will go off, on the trip back it stays on. During one trip to the store while my daughter was in the passenger seat the light stayed on so i drove to the dealer, both the general manager and the service manager saw her in the seat with the light on. They ran diagnostics on the car and it shows no malfunctions. They stated there was nothing they could do since the diagnostics didn't show any error codes. How safe is this!!! It is imperative the general motors be forced to fix this problem. They are aware of the problem as i have written the president and yet the 2007 still has the same air bag system. I can not count the number of times this has happened. I would appreciate contract and resolution to this issue. *nm
