 Description of the problemTwo days after i bought this 2013 nissan sentra. When sister (120 bl) sit in the passenger seat and the passenger side airbag light was on, after couple minutes the light went off. Later on, the light on again. I check the user's manu, it said if the airbag light on which means the airbag is not in working condition, if i have a crash, the passenger will not got any airbag protection. I went back to the dealer's service department and the mechanic said it was common, just because the airbag sensor under the "new designed" seat was not so sensitive,and he said my sister is not heavy enough(120 bl) to make the airbag work. The reason that the airbag light on and off was because my sister did not sit properly. But when i ask why this situation never happen in my other cars. He could not say anything. He told me the car was designed like this. He did not do anything and he just sent me home that day. I got a call from their customer service today. They said they knew there was a recall about the passenger airbag issue, but my car was not in that category, even my car have the same problem as the recall issued. What a joke!!! It seems they will not do nothing until someone got injured. It is a safety issue, if i can not get a good solution, this car will be my first and last nissan ever. I feel so disappoint!!! I hope nissan will not be a second ''toyota".
