| Description of the problem | With a passenger in the front seat the airbag light will turn on and the dash will report "passenger airbag off." this happens anywhere from immediately after the car is turned on, before it is placed in drive, to an hour after the car has been running. We do frequently have electronics plugged in, but i just learned of the possible connection and have not tried to troubleshoot it. The seats are heated. The airbag light does not turn on without a front seat passenger. First started in june of 2016 and has been happening intermittently since then, approximately 75% of the time a passenger is in the front seat. |
