SERVICE AIR BAG SHOWED UP ON MY INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. THE CODE READER SHOWS CODE B0020-0D, PASSENGER INSTRUMENT PANEL AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT LOOP STAGE 2 SHORT TO BATTERY. THE WARNING HAS BEEN INTERMITTENT FOR YEARS AND THEN HERE RECENTLY THE WARNING BECAME A STEADY ILLUMINATION. WHEN THIS ISSUE FIRST STARTED IT DIDN'T MATTER IF I WAS MOVING OR OR STATIONARY. NOW THE WARNING DOES NOT GO OFF. I AM NOT 100% POSITIVE IF THE TAKATA RECALL IS WHAT IS AFFECTING MY AIR BAG BUT ACCORDING TO THE RECALL IT IS THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT AIR BAG. CURRENTLY MY VEHICLE FALLS UNDER MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER 2049151 AND NHTSA RECALL NUMBER 16V381. THE RECALL IS CURRENTLY INCOMPLETE, AND A REMEDY IS NOT YET AVAILABLE. I LIVE IN TEXAS SO AS THE THE AMBIENT TEMPERATURE INCREASED THE AIR BAG ISSUE BECAME WORSE.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ENGINE
VEHICLE HAS 120,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS A RANDOM MISFIRE, WITH TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILTRACK WARNINGS AND A FLASHING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. ENGINE HAS EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION AND RUNS ROUGH. INSTALLED NEW PLUGS AND WIRES, NO CHANGE. AFTER READING UP ON THESE ENGINES I FOUND OUT THAT THE AFM / DOD FEATURE IS A COMMON FAILURE FOR THESE ENGINES. GM SHOULD STEP UP AND HELP OWNERS WITH SOME OF THE REPAIR COSTS. THIS IS GOING TO BE EXPENSIVE. *TR
