Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: We have a 2007 chevy tahoe. one of the reasons we purchased this vehicle is that it has front and side airbags. i usually ride in the passenger seat and the sensor most often indicates off. after numerous attempts of trying to get them to establish what was wrong, the chevy dealer said that my weight was not quite enough to get it to work or that it was positional( how i sat). i am a grown woman who weighs about 115 lbs and am 5'2".this is not thin by normal standards and it is not considered an unusual size. if in fact this vehicle was not meant to work for someone of my size they should advise you of this. i asked what would happen if there was a wreck and my airbag did not deploy, would i have to sue gm? they are avoiding me and i have written to the ceo of gm as advised by customer service and i have written to bill heard, the owner of tom jumper chevrolet where we bought the car. no answers from anyone. what do you think? *jb
