Description of the problem	I have owned this car for all of a week. There are at least 2 major safety concerns. The first is the passenger air bag. The light on the dash indicates that the air bag is "off" when my wife sits in the passenger seats. She is an adult, height about 5' 2" and weighs approx. 120 lbs. Apparently i am not the only one with this issue. Calls to nissan are a waste of time at this point as i'm told nothing about how this will be resolved. The other issue is with the cvt transmission. Under light acceleration, at about 1200-1500 rpm there is a vibration and its very noisy. It almost seems like the car is going to die out. The other issues i am having with the car of which there are a few are not necessarily safety related so i wont post them here. Needless to say, there are better and safer choices out there. Choose wisely.
