    - BROOKLINE, MA

    BOUGHT NEW SUBARU 2008 IMPREZA OUTBACK SPORT WAGON- PASSENGER SIDE FRONTAL AIRBAG DOES NOT TURN ON IF PASSENGER WEIGHS 100-107 LBS (THAT IS US)AND ONLY NOTICED WK 3 SINCE NO PASSENGER UNTIL THEN. ONLY WORKS WITH HEAVIER GUYS. NO FIX PER SUBARU. APPARENTLY I SEE ONLINE THAT THERE HAVE BEEN EARLIER COMPLAINTS OF SAME PROBLEM IN SUBARU FOR PAST 2 YEARS, EVEN OTHER MODELS. WHY IS THIS NOT REPORTED OR FIXED. OTHER MAKES DO IT WELL FOR ANY PERSON >65 LBS. *TR
