Description of the problem	In approximately march 2013, the passenger air bag "off" light began coming on while driving our 2013 nissan altima. At first, the light would come for a minute or two and then go off. As time progressed, the occurrences became more frequent and longer in duration. On may 31, 2013, the car was taken to the nissan dealer from which the car was purchased to have the problem corrected. The dealer could not find a problem and there were no error codes. No repair was performed. The frequency and duration of the light coming on continued to increase. At one point during a trip to the southwestern united states, the "off" light was illuminated for more than two hours while driving. On september 23, 2013, the car was again taken to the dealer to have the problem fixed. Again, the dealer could not duplicate the problem, and there were no error codes. Supposedly, the dealer contacted nissan for assistance. It was reported that nissan declined to do anything since there were no error codes and the dealer could not duplicate the problem. Again, no repair was performed. The passenger air bag "off" light continues to come on occasionally while driving. Although, with the arrival of cooler weather, the frequency and duration are less than the occurrences during the summer heat.
