Front Air Bag Sensor Control problem #1

The automatic passenger airbag sensor does not operate properly. My wife weighs about 120 pounds and the light goes on and off at random on the highway are just sitting still. The dealer has zero solutions and we are following the instructions in the manual which states the weight threshold to be 80 lbs. If we're in an accident and her airbag doesn't deploy there will be a problem. Vehicle is an 2011 Mazda Tribute.

Air Bag Not Deploy problem #2

Head-on collision with power pole at 55 mph. Driver air bag failed to deploy. (no passengers on board).
