Model	ALTIMA
Model Year	2016
File date	01/09/16
Component	AIR BAGS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Airbag sensor is according to the nissan dealer only activating the airbag if the passenger is over 120lbs. My wife is under this weight and the airbag off light is on every time we drive somewhere. Nissan has tried to play it off saying it's actually safer for an adult under 120lbs to have the airbag off. This is completely unacceptable and i do not have this problem in my vw or my mazda.
