Model Year	2006
File date	09/04/13

Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Air bag light illuminated, cause is front passenger seat weight sensor, this means the entire seat must be replaced, i don't feel that with the mileage as low as it is, i should pay for this repair, why hasn't the government agency (nhtsa) issued a recall on this very common occurrence? My mechanic told me he has replaced many (over 100). At great expense to the owners. Defective safety parts for a car like this, out of warranty because of age, not mileage, should be on the manufacturer.
