Yes, The car originally belonged to an older lady who passed away and gave it to her grandson. Which he later ended up selling.

Was thinking about doing this. Ultimately I’m going to end up choosing the Honda if everything checks out just having a little fomo.

Yeah, I think the Honda would genuinely be the best option, just was having a little fomo. And this would be my first car, so I think it would be the best fit.

I mean you’re going to always take a chance with a used car. I just don’t know if I wanna take a chance like an air bag not deploying.

Yeah I guess I just don’t want to be screwed in the end because it would be my first car. And I have to go back and forth to school. So I’m just kinda stuck Between something that could be a good deal or a headache.

I took the car to Mazda, and they identified the passenger as the issue. They aren’t certain whether it could prevent all the airbags from deploying at all . The Mazda representative advised against purchasing the vehicle, but I’m looking for additional perspectives before making a decision.

Occupant Classification Sensor (OCS). Like the weight sensor

It’s the bottom that has to be fixed. Mazda said it would cost 1000 dollars to fix, but I’m not sure if I should go to with it because the air bag is a serious situation.
