Airbag light on on other Traverse years

Report counts are for each model year on its own, so a newer car has had less time to collect them. Model years with too few reports of it for a sheet: 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2024, 2025, 2026.

What this problem usually is

This is the narrower sheet inside airbag problems for the warning light itself: an airbag or SRS light that stays on, or comes and goes, with no crash involved. The light is the car saying part of the airbag system may not work when it's needed.

What owners wrote

“The airbag light is constantly on. I've dinner many replacement repairs but it's still on”

Filed Nov 6, 2025

“My airbag warning light came on and the system reported a seatbelt issue. There was a recall for my vehicle in 2014 that wasn’t repaired. Over time my vehicle has had insurmountable electrical issues as well.”

Filed Jun 24, 2024

“my airbag warning light comes on intermittently and the dealer has said the parts are not available for me to get the airbag fixed. The letter I received from Chevrolet said not to drive the car and that there was no remedy. I would like a replacement vehicle until the parts are available to fix the airbag.”

Filed Oct 29, 2023

“I got the recall letter in June but there still aren't parts to fix it they say , it's the only vehicle I drive but it is terrifying that the airbag is dangerous! I just want it fixed before it hurts or kills one of us, the service airbag light comes on once in a while and stays on longer each time it comes on.”

Should you keep driving it?

This page can't tell you that. 0 of 78 reports involved a crash. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.

File your own report with NHTSA. Complaint counts are how a problem gets an investigation. How reports land on this sheet.
