Description of the problem	Passenger airbag off indicator works normally except under the following conditions concerning the front passenger seat: 1. Passenger seat is occupied - indicator is off. 2. Passenger temporarily leaves seat - indicator is on. 3. Passenger returns to seat - indicator remains on. 4. Indicator remains on until the ignition switch is turned off and then on. Obviously, the passenger is in mortal danger if the passenger airbag off condition escapes notice under these conditions.
