RE: LEXUS LS330 - PROBLEM WITH THE AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE THE LEXUS LS330 HAS A MECHANISM ON THE PASSENGER SIDE THAT TURNS THE AIRBAG ON OR OFF BASED ON THE WEIGHT OF THE PERSON SITTING IN FRONT SEAT. IT WAS MEANT TO TURN OFF FOR A CHILD AND TURN ON FOR AN ADULT. IT DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY (AT LEAST IN MY CAR). APPARENTLY IT KEEPS TURNING OFF COMPLETELY AND ALSO TURNS ON THE "TAKE TO DEALER LIGHT". I HAVE HAD THE DEALER LOOK AT THE CAR TWICE. IT IS AGAIN IN THE OFF MODE PERMANENTLY. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. *JB
