I have a 2009 pontiac torrent awd. The passenger side front seat air bag 98% of the time wont turn on for my wife. She weighs 124 pds and that should be more then enough to set it to an "on" position. This is a safety hazard for her. I have had it to the dealer twice and they reset the system but i still have the same problem. The dealer tried to get gm to tell them what was up as to settings and such but they couldn't get anywhere with them. I contacted gm and complained and some person from another country who you could just understand said the same old thing about the car. I know that earlier pontiac torrents had this same problem and a recall was done. I think gm still has a problem. Thanks
