The passenger sensing system,
if equipped, turns off the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag
under certain conditions. No other

passenger sensing system for the
front outboard passenger position
unless there is an airbag off switch
on the instrument panel endcap.
If there is an airbag off switch, the
vehicle does not have a passenger
sensing system. SeeAirbag On-Off
