Suzuki passenger seat airbag control sensor is defective and often does not turn off the passenger side airbags for very light passengers as it was designed to do. suzuki has a kit to rectify the issue, but will not send me the parts. they will only send the parts to a kia dealer, and the nearest one to the location where my vehicle is kept is about 250 miles. i have asked them for the parts kit so i can perform the installation and calibration myself. *tr
