| Description of the problem | Noticed a few months ago that the light for the front passenger air bag was off when an adult was sitting in the front. I took it in for an oil change and the nissan dealer said that the front air bag sensor in the seat was defective. So the air bag will not deploy if in an accident because it doesn't register that someone is there. |
