Air Bag light comes on when someone is sitting in the passenger seat of this 2009 Cobolt, with only 53,000 miles. Why is Chevy/GM ignoring this issue. I have read about 450 complaints about this. What the hell is the problem. Why should we "me" the consumer have to pay, when this is a common issue. My 18 yr old daughter drives this car. Someone please look into this issue, why should it cost me 1000
