Check airbag warning light comes on, when someone is in passenger seat. Air bag light is off. When the passenger seat is empty the air bag light is on and the fasten seatbelt light flashes and chimes. I feel this is a safety issue and should be addressed.

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE AND THE NEXT DAY THE FRONT SEAT BELTS BEGAN TO RATTLE, AND THERE IS AN AIR NOISE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW. WE TOLD THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD HAVE TO HAVE THE CAR FOR SEVERAL DAYS. WE TOLD THEM WE WERE ON OUR WAY AND THAT WE WOULD JUST HAVE IT FIXED WHEN THE OIL REQUIRED CHANGING. WE FINALLY TOOK THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE NEXT DAY WE WERE TOLD THE CAR WAS READY. WHEN WE WENT TO PICK UP THE CAR THEY SAID THAT THEY COULD NOT FIX THE SEAT BELTS NOR COULD THEY FIX THE AIR LEAK. THEY SAID IT WAS A DESIGNED FLAW. WE CALLED GMC AND THEY STATED THEY COULD NOT FIX IT AND THAT ALL VERANOS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR
