Consumer Description

FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE. FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT DISPLAYS "OFF" ON THE DASH AND ON THE DRIVER'S DISPLAY PANEL. AIRBAG WON'T DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT (BECAUSE THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR ISN'T WORKING). EVEN WHILE AN ADULT IS SEATED IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, THE AIRBAG SENSOR STAYS ILLUMINATED IN THE "OFF" POSITION. IT POPPED UP LAST YEAR AND NO ACCIDENTS OR ANY OTHER VEHICLE ISSUES HAVE OCCURRED DURING THAT TIME PERIOD.
