Model	FORESTER
Model Year	2014
File date	28/12/20
Component	AIR BAGS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	When turning on the car or while driving, a notification appears on the display indicating the passenger side airbag is off. Also a light illuminates on the dash indicating the same thing. This has happened 4-5 times in the last few months. The notifications/light usually stay on for the duration of the trip. It happens both when there is someone in the passenger seat and when the seat is empty. The dealer found a stored ods sensor code but since the light wasn't on the day i brought it in they wouldn't go further with correcting the issue. 2015-2018 foresters currently have a recall for this issue. I believe my 2014 forester to be affected by the same issue.
