Air bag passenger light always flashes "passenger airbag off" even when an adult sits on the passenger seat. Dealer said this computer module problem is not covered under recent recalls or warranty and that charge will be about $1000. 00. I think that this should be covered by general motors. Air bag has never deployed.
