Chevrolet Silverado: Airbag System / Replacing Airbag System Parts after a Crash
Warning
A crash can damage the airbag systems in the vehicle.
A damaged airbag system may not properly protect you and your passenger(s)
in a crash, resulting in serious injury or even death. To help make sure the airbag
systems are working properly after a crash, have them inspected and any necessary
replacements made as soon as possible.
If an airbag inflates, you will need to replace airbag system parts. See your
dealer for service.
If the airbag readiness light stays on after the vehicle is started or comes
on when you are driving, the airbag system may not work properly. Have the vehicle
serviced right away. See Airbag Readiness Light.
The airbag system does not need regularly scheduled maintenance or replacement.
Make sure the airbag readiness light is working. See Airbag Readiness Light...
