Seven problems related to front air bag sensor control have been reported for the 2007 Lexus ES350. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
We bought a 2007 Lexus Es350. Whenever I would sit on the front passenger side, the front passenger airbag sensor would show on (I'm about 115 lbs. ). During the July 4th weekend though, we noticed that the sensor was showing off while I was sitting on the front passenger side. We brought the car to the local Lexus dealer but we were just told that there is nothing wrong with it and that it is working as designed. I did some research and found out that thousands have already complained about the faulty airbag sensors.
Lexus Es350 have experienced airbag sensor malfunctions. I would like to know what this is about.
Our Lexus ES 350, leased in January, 2007 has a potentially serious problem. The passenger airbag is not on consistently when the passenger seat is occupied. I have reported this to the dealer on three occasions but the problem persists. After the last visit and after finding the system was working as designed it was suggested I add exercise weights to the seat.
The contact owns a 2007 Lexus Es350. She stated that the passenger side air bag light remained off which indicated that the air bag was off. When people who were bigger in size were in the passenger seat the airbag warning light would illuminate. The failure mileage was 500 and the current mileage was 6,000. Updated 02-01-08.
: the contact stated every time an occupant who measured 5 feet 7 inches tall and 120 pounds, sat either in the passenger or driver seat, the air bag light turned off. The dealer and the manufacturer were not contacted.
: the contact stated the air bag light illuminated on and off on the dash when the passenger seat was occupied. The vehicle was driven to the dealer where it was determined the air bag operated as designed.
Passenger airbag not working properly and turns "off" when my wife sits in the seat while car is in operation. My wife weighs under 110 lbs. It has been reported to the dealership and they have not been able to fix to date. I am very concerned for the safety of my wife.
