Hazard

The passenger-side airbag module has insufficient grounding. If a passenger maintains an abnormal seating posture for an extended period (such as not keeping feet in contact with the floor) and subsequently touches the dashboard, static electricity accumulated on the body may discharge, potentially causing the passenger-side airbag to deploy.
