My air bag service light is on when a passenger sits in it. Looking at others complaints this is a normal thing for GMC 2014 Acadia. I am wondering why a recall has not been done. I just bought this car 3 months ago and they are quoting me $600, stating it is not under recall list as it is not my curtain side air bag. Looking at others complaints- they have to have it repaired many times. This should be a recall! Air bags
