Passenger Airbag OFF light comes on intermittently. Not sure if that is actually indicating that the Pass. airbag is disabled when the telltale is on. Dealer unable to replicate. Issue does not involve any cushions, backrests, or other stuff on the ... All directional signals and the hazard flashers stopped working for a couple of days. Then, completely on their own, they started working again. Dealer was unable to find any faults in the electrical system.
The warning light for the passenger airbag is off was coming on and staying on for over 5 min. even though an adult of 110 pounds was properly seated in the area. After tech did nothing but a systems check, the problem appeared to correct itself.
