Description of the problem	The initial problem was the airbag indicator light did not come on when my wife sat down in the passenger seat. It was an intermittent problem with the light not coming on to show the airbags were active. We took it back to the dealer and they could not duplicate it. I waited about a week and it happened again. I took it to the dealer with the airbag light off with my wife in the seat. They replaced the sensor in the seat. For about a week all was ok. Then we were coming home from a shopping trip and my wife sat down and the light indicating the airbags were active did not come on. I drove directly to the dealer, about thirty minutes, and with my wife in the seat showed him. The service manager called gm and was on the phone for about 45 minutes. They connected the vehicle to the gm computer with my wife in the seat and ran a number of tests. The gm people indicated to the service manager that they were aware of the problem and told him not to touch anything that the vehicle meets all government specifications. They said they would call back in 24-48 hours. They did and claimed there was nothing wrong with the airbags and said all of the 2011 chevrolet cruzes were the same as mine. They said there was nothing more to be done. The problem has not reoccurred yet, but we are skeptical about the outcome and notified you folks. I just hope if we have a headon and the light indicates the airbag is off we will have a problem and gm will have a problem. *tt
