THE AIR BAG SENSOR LIGHT COMES ON WHICH DISABLES THE SYSTEM. CHECKING ON THE INTERNET, THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE C6 CORVETTES. THE DEALER ACTS AS IF THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF IT. THAT CAN NOT BE TRUE. MY PARTNER HAS A 2009 C6 AND HAD THE SAME ISSUE. THIS HAS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE.

I WAS DRIVING THE CAR THROUGH A RESIDENTIAL AREA WHEN THE RED AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WENT ON. I PULLED THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SHUT IT OFF. UPON RESTARTING THE CAR, THE LIGHT STAYED ON AFTER THE LAMP TESTS COMPLETED. I THEN MOVED THE DRIVER'S SEAT FORWARD A BIT (THE CAR HAS POWER MEMORY SEATS) AND THE LIGHT WENT OFF. I CONTINUED DRIVING THE CAR ON A COUPLE OF ERRANDS W/O THE LIGHT COMING BACK ON.

AIR BAG MALFUNCTION LIGHT TURNS ON INTERMITTENTLY WHEN CAR GOES OVER A BUMP, OR DURING QUICK STOP, OR SHARP TURN. THIS LIGHT INDICATES THAT THE AIR BAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY. POSSIBLY RELATED TO THE WIRING HARNESS UNDERNEATH THE SEATS. *TR SINCE THE LIGHT COMES ON DURING HARD STEERING MOTION, BUMP, OR RAPID DECELERATION, I ASSUME THE AIR BAGS ARE UNLIKELY TO DEPLOY DURING A CRASH.
