2005 Chevrolet SILVERADO 1500 Air Bags Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1037644
Internal NHTSA #	10562851
Manufacurer	General Motors LLC
Brand	CHEVROLET
Model	SILVERADO 1500
Model Year	2005
File date	13/10/11
Component	AIR BAGS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Upon starting the truck, everything was fine. I let idle for about 2 to 3 minutes to warm up. After it was warmed up, i looked down onto the dash and noticed the warning text "service air bag". Also the airbag light on the left side of the dash was illuminated, to this date i have yet to fix the issue. After research online, it seems that i am not the only one with this problem. This does not affect the function of the truck however if i do get into an accident, the air bags will not deploy. I guess i am willing to take that risk as a trip to the dealer to fix the air bag issue will result in a bill of over $200.
