I HAD AN ADULT PASSENGER SITTING ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WITH HER 8LB DOG. SHE WEIGHS 83 LBS. THE AIRBAG LIGHT SHOWED THAT THE AIRBAG WAS SHUT OFF. ANOTHER TIME I PLACE A GROCERY BAG WITH TWO BAGS OF FROZEN POTATOES AND A QUART OF ICE CREAM ON THE SEAT, THE "NO AIRBAG LIGHT" SHUT OFF. WHEN I REMOVED THE BAG THE THE AIRBAG OFF LIGHT WHENT ON.
PASSENGER AIRBAG SHOWS OFF WHEN PASSENGER IN THE SEAT IS A TYPICAL ADULT, ~130 POUNDS. THE UNDERSEAT SENSOR (ODS OCCUPANT DETECTION SYSTEM) IS NOT CALIBRATED - NEEDS ABOUT 160 POUNDS TO SENSE A PERSON IN THE SEAT. NISSAN HAD A RECALL (MARCH 2013) FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM. THEY CLAIM THAT THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. NISSAN HOTLINE ([XXX]) SAYS TAKE IT TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER SAYS CALL NISSAN. THIS CAR NEEDS TO BE A PART OF THE RECALL. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
