Letter received from nissan regarding possible front air bag passenger sensor malfunction. Our sensor malfunctions inconsistently with the same individual sitting in the seat (weighing 110-115 lbs) while vehicle is in motion; system works properly at times indicating passenger air bag will deploy in an accident, and then at other times notes airbag will not deploy. We're now encountering difficulties with nissan correcting/fixing the acknowledged (by nissan) problem due to the inconsistent nature of the issue. Concerned the system won't work correctly upon potential collision and requesting the sensor that is malfunctioning be replaced.
