Description of the problem	This is the 4th time i have had the dealer look at the inconsistent airbag light on the passenger side come on and come off. They have changed sensors and today told me that if i sit on the edge of one side of the seat the sensor light will come on and the airbag will not be engaged. Sometimes it lasts a minute (s) and this week it lasted 50 minutes with light on going on interstate 95. Coming home the light never came on. The nissan altima 2013 has many complaints and the dealership service person told me the above facts were normal and his does it also and he has a 2012. So........... I guess he does not mind driving around knowing that his life is in jeopardy with the light on - however, i do but feel the dealership has no clue on how to solve this even though many complaints have been lodged. I am waiting for a reply from nhtsa and then will jump over the dealership and go to the regional division of nissan to speak to a supervisor. * please note: the tech i talked today did not indicate on the printout my total problem just that a sensor was replaced.
