Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	There is an intermittent passenger airbag detection issue with 2013 nissan altima 2. 5 sv. There were in multiple times when a full grown person(weight > 150lbs) sitting on the passenger side, while car was being driven, 'passenger side air bag off' indicator would turn on, indicating that car is not detecting anyone in the front passenger side and in result airbags were turned off. This warning indication stayed on throughout our drive and sometimes turned off after 10-15 minutes of drive and in other occasions it didn't turn off at all until car was turned off. If this was just a feature issue then much lower priority should been assigned but it is a major safety issue/concern and i request an investigation. A blatant disregard from the manufacturer of this issue may result in death, injury and property damage. I request the help of nhtsa for quick and thorough investigation on this matter. Thank you!
