| Description of the problem | On the dashboard there is a passenger airbag status indicator. The light comes on when i have a full grown adult. According to the manual the light should not come on when there is an adult in the seat. I asked the dealer about this and the sensor shouldn't trip unless there is someone that weighs less then 100 lbs. My passenger is close to 200 lbs, but the sensor still indicates the passenger airbag system is off. This happens multiple times over the course of the last month. I have made an appointment to have it serviced. |
