Description of the problem	My 2009 nissan altima coup v6 edition frequently turns off the passenger front airbag when someone is sitting in the seat. The person weighs over 125 lbs and should be enough for the seat to sense an adult in it. For some reason it intermittently will flash the dash board light indicating that the airbag will not go off during an accident because the occupant is too light. I have taken in into the dealer on 2 separate occasions and they have told me the sensor and airbag unit are functioning, and there is nothing that can fix the problem.

A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
