Ignition Switch Problems of Nissan Sentra

Occupant classification system (OCS) "from owners manual" after ignition switch is placed in the "on" position, the front passenger air bag status light on the instrument panel illuminates for about 7 seconds and turns off or remains illuminated depending on the front passenger seat occupied status. *unoccupied front passenger's seat: the light is off and the front air bag is off. And will not inflate in a crash. On my vehicle the light remains on constantly even when unoccupied, it does not turn off as stated. After reading numerous complaints from other Nissan owners, it is apparent the dealer does not want to "fix" the problem and just creates argument over the status of the light even when shown the owners manual on the proper operation of the front passenger air bag status light. It is very distracting and annoying with this bright yellow light in the middle of the dash, constantly on, especially at night when it is most noticeable. The light comes on from the time you start the car until you turn the car off, even when no one is sitting in the front passenger seat. Took car to dealer and they are not willing to fix the problem, they say it is working if the light remains on even when the front seat is unoccupied. That is not what the owners manual states, nor is it what other Nissan owners have been complaining about. The light should not stay on when the seat is unoccupied.
