07 chevy aveo red air bag light on in dash?
okay so i have an 07 chevy aveo. and a few weeks ago this little light came on.. It looks like a little dude sitting in a chair with an air bag going off.. It came on and then went off and now it will not go off. I have no clue what it is and what i means, and if it can be fixed, but some one one told me that it could be my air bag sensor… I would really love to know what it is, how to fix it and how much it is going to cost…..
I would have to suggest you take the vehicle to the dealer. With it being a fairly new vehicle it may still be under the 3 year 36,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty and thus you would be covered. Or you could be slightly just outside these terms and they may cover it anyway. Either way the best way to get it fixed would be to take it to a dealer.

The only way to turn the light off is have a repair shop or dealer fix the problem with your airbag system and clear the trouble codes.
it is the airbag fault lamp. when the car’s computer sees a problem with the airbag system, it disables the airbag so that it can’t accidentally deploy. It also turns the light on the dash on so that the driver knows that there is a problem with the airbag system.
The only way to turn the light off is have a repair shop or dealer fix the problem with your airbag system and clear the trouble codes. It could be anything from a loose connection (very cheap) to a faulty airbag or computer (very expensive). Have a shop check it out, or maybe it’s still under warranty and the dealer will repair it for free.
