Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Since I bought car the passenger air bag off light is always on whenever my wife, who weighs 165 lbs, is a passenger - she does not have airbag protection. We normally do not have a passenger in the front seat, and never even knew if that was an option until my wife just sat in the passenger seat and pointed it out to me. This is while she was sitting with the seat belt while the car was moving at any speed.”
