The seat belt for passenger side and the seat assembly malfunctioned when my passenger buckled his seat belt. There was a popping sound and then the airbag light came on. The system was re calibrated at the dealership but I continue to have sporadic problems with this issue. I cannot have a passenger due to this issue.

The flange nut that holds the seatbelt receiver to the front passenger seat bolt came off, allowing the seatbelt receiver to completely disengage from the seat. This is a serious safety concern.
