2008 PONTIAC SOLSTICE Complaints

IN JANUARY 2014..MY PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON THE DIC SAYING TO SERVICE AIRBAG??? I HAVE VERY FEW PASSENGERS FROM TIME TO TIME..MAYBE THREE A MONTH..NONE ARE HEAVY ENOUGH AS TO PLOP DOWN ON SEAT WITH ENOUGH WEIGHT TO INFLICT DAMAGE ON WHATEVER THE PROBLEM MAY BE!!! ALSO, WHEN I CLEAN THE CAR, I MAKE CERTAIN AS TO NOT KNEEL OR PUT ANY SORT OF WEIGHT AS TO BREAK THE CIRCUIT IN WHICH I'VE BEEN READING ABOUT ALL THE MANY OTHERS!!! HAS ANYBODY GIVEN ANY THOUGHT THAT MAYBE IT'S A DEFAULT?? IT HAPPENS SO VERY OFTEN WITH MANY OF THE OTHER AUTOMOBILES...SO WHAT MAKES OUR CAR ANY DIFFERENT??? IT HAPPENS!!! AS MY WORD, I DID NOTHING IN ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM TO DAMAGE IT!!!! I LOVE MY SOLSTICE, BUT IF NOTHING IS DONE ABOUT THIS, I , MY FAMILY, FRIENDS AND WHOEVER ELSE I MAY INFORM WILL NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH GM AGAIN..SORRY, BUT THIS JUST ISN'T RIGHT...SAFETY!!!LOL *TR
