Air Bags · Sensor/Control Module
I purchased this unit in 2010. This is related to the front passenger seat. The signal of the airbag appears off even if there is a passenger seated. This started to happen in 2013. I took it for a diagnostic at a dealer and they said it was a faulty sensor. Very expensive repair. There is a recall for this situation but when i gave my vin # it appears my vehicle is not included (nhtsa campaign #07v344000). *tr
