Description of the problem	I bought my chevy aveo lt in 2013 with a little over 39,000 and within 6 months i noticed the passenger side air bag light was only staying on sometimes; and then a couple of months ago i noticed that it was staying off. I took my car to the dealer as i bought an extended warranty, and they told me it was the sensor in the set and that it would have to be replaced at the cost of $1600 as it is not covered by my warranty as it is a factory defect. I did a lot of looking on the internet and found this has been a problem with the aveo since at least 2006. The one person that finally got gm to fix theirs after a lot of words back and forth says it went out again 6 months later. This is a very serious matter as the passenger is at risk and in my case it is my 13 yr old grandson i'm raising that i take back and forth to school everyday much less everywhere else. I'm 68 and do not have the kind of money that is needed to fix this problem so i hope g m will place these cars on recall and fix this problem in the aveos before someone is hurt or dead.
