Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Front/side airbag sensor/module appears to be defective. since new occupant sensor will not reliably classify an adult sitting in the front passenger seat and most often turns airbags off or turns on and off during a trip. i have noted that this occurs with a variety of adults weighing from 100-150 lbs. i had the car into the dealer twice for reprogramming in december 2005. problem still exists. *nm
