Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Sonata front passenger air bag sensor problem the air bag sensor light on the dashboard does not function correctly for a 120 pound person as a front seat passenger. if you turn the engine on and then a passenger sits down in the front passenger seat, the sensor light assumes no one is sitting in the front passenger seat and the air bag won't release if there is an accident. if a front seat passenger sits in the seat and the car engine is turned on the sensor light works. but if the passenger gets out of the seat when the car is stopped while the engine is still on and then returns to the seat, the sensor light does not work again.*jb
