I HAVE A 2003 CHEVY SILVERADO PICKUP WITH 71937 MILES TODAY JUST DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ON THE DIC DISPLAY IT PUT A MESSAGE OUT OF SERVICE AIR BAGS AND RED LIGHT IS ON DASH ALSO. I CALLED THE CHEVY DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT IT AND THEY TOLD ME IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR REPAIRS AND OH HE SAID THE AIR BAGS WOULD NOT WORK UNTIL IT WAS REPAIRED. ALL THE FORUMS I HAVE READ SO FAR SAY THAT THE PROBLEM AFTER THEY HAVE IT REPAIRED STILL COMES BACK. IS THIS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE COVERED BY GM ? *TR
