When i am a passenger in my wife's Ford Escort the indicator light says "passenger airbag off". I have told her that seems suspicious.

My 1998 Ford Ranger has that cut off switch.Depends on the manufacturer and year of manufacture.
Ford Crown Victorias, which included the Police interceptor (CVPI 65A/68P models), built between 1999 and 2011 had a passenger side weight cut-off of about 35 pounds.
We used to install a keyed lockout switch for the passenger side airbag because the officer's gear sitting in the seat would activate it.
I got news for ya, Jones. You're gonna get smacked by that airbag either way. As fast as it comes out, there has to be some force to it.The weight it set at 75lbs for a reason, so small children, and adults of small stature do not get injured by the airbag deployments. The early passenger side airbag systems did not have the weight switch, and some people and children were injured, not by the collision, but by the airbag deployment.
I'll have to clean this one up, but back when I used to work as mechanic, we used to say "F****d Over Rebuilt Dodge".Found On Road Dead
Mazda Miatas
Wasn't that the secret component in those Takata airbags?Should have had Claymores as airbags. Soulless piece of amoebe poop.
Had a TR-3A for a little while, heater was one of the few things that worked properly. It city traffic I had to to turn the heat down. However with the gaps in roof and side curtains a Salamander heater could not keep you warm at 60 mph in a New England Winter.I wanted a Miata. Factory new Triumph TR-4As with a/c, working heater and a five year/50,000 mile warranty are unavailable. Of course it was to be painted BRG.
