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 got replaced
Owners who name the part that was replaced mention the sensor (3 reports).
Recalls and investigations

When it happens
The middle half of failures fell between 42,000 and 101,000 miles, from the 23 reports that gave a mileage.
What owners wrote
“The service airbag light comes on often. The connection for the airbag equipment under both the driver and passenger seats has had to be re-wired 3 times. Tech stated that the connection has failed, and they spliced the wires together. This continues to happen when the seat is moved. Moving the wire harness causes the service light to go out.”

Should you keep driving it?
This page can't tell you that. 0 of 31 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.
