Reported risk: On certain vehicles, the front passenger seat Occupant Classification System may malfunction and deactivate the front passenger airbag while a person is seated in the front passenger seat, illuminating the "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" warning light. This could result in the airbag not deploying when warranted in a crash, increasing the risk of personal injury. Correction: Dealers will verify the proper operation of the Occupant Classification System, and affect repairs if necessary.
