Description of the problem	This pertains to 16v244000... With the exception of starting the vehicle, i had never seen this light come on until recently. My pathfinder is largely used to move my children (both under the age of 4) to and from activities and run errands. 90% of the time i am driving there is no one in the front passenger seat. My wife rides upfront for family road trips and on the weekends. It was just recently that the light came on while she was in the seat alerting me to the faulty sensor. I called my local nissan dealer and was advised that they did have a solution to this recall and could fix the issue that week. I took the car and waited patiently. Upon exiting the service center and getting ready to turn onto a major highway i noticed that the light was on... Figuring someone had forgotten to reset something i turned around and returned to the dealership. There i was advised that, from now on, my passenger airbag warning light would remain on unless someone over 50lbs was seated in the passenger seat. I was shocked and complained to the service tech but was informed that nissan had decided that cars with this issue would have a permanently disengaged passenger airbag if the seat was not occupied. I firmly believe that, rather than fixing this issue correctly with the same but functioning oem parts, nissan has decided to implement a recall fix that saves them time and money. I tried getting accustomed to this warning light but it is the same color as my blind spot warning alerts so seeing it my peripheral vision is a constant distraction. I believe that the fix offered will ultimately make drivers ambivalent to the blind spot system and lead to a higher collision rate.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
