You can also call any GM service department and ask them if there are any open recalls for your vehicle, have your VIN number ready…

You can also check for any SRS/airbag codes pending or otherwise with a good scanner that is capable of reading all/most modules, most auto parts stores can do this for free…

You could have a bad seat sensor for instance…

Recalls involving a software update were issued 7 and 8 years ago, would have likely been completed years ago when the vehicle was nearly new.

Putting the seat belt on with no weight or not enough weight in the seat will turn off the airbag light also, not enough weight as already mentioned…
