## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the Occupant Classification System \(in the right front seat\) may misinterpret an incorrectly seated adult as a small stature adult or a child, thereby deactivating the passenger frontal airbag.  Failure of the passenger frontal airbag to deploy during a crash \(where deployment is warranted\) could increase the risk of personal injury to the seat occupant.  Correction: Dealers will update the Occupant Classification System software.
