Passenger side air bag light comes on saying the air bag is not on. Happens intermittently. My wife weighs 101 lbs. I have contacted miata USA today and my dealer (3rd time). So far no satisfaction. I'm bringing the car in 08/01/2014 again. I spoke to Mazda USA today (07/09/14). In not so many words I was told that my wife wasn't positioned properly in the seat or that she doesn't weigh enough. That is an absurd answer. I then asked what if a child was in the seat. I was told that they could not conjecture on that possibility. They said it was up to the dealer to find a solution. Respectfully, edward levine.

Takata recall. Air bag light comes on continuously after turning engine on, never goes off. I bought the car new, and took it back to the dealer. Dealer said that it was not covered on any recalls. I was informed that there was a recall on the late 1995 models, but not the early 1996 ones. I was also informed that it would cost me $900 to $1000 to fix. At that time, it had to remain unfixed, and the light has been on continuously since. I am still apprehensive when I turn the key and drive it.
