Default Passenger airbag off light randomly comes on when someone is in passenger seat

I've started to notice this issue where the passenger airbag light comes on at random times when someone is sitting there.. If I turn off and back on it goes away but sometimes comes back.. Anyone else have this issue?

I frequently have this issue too. I think if the person's knees are too close to the glove box it goes off because it senses that the airbags might hurt them in a crash. This is an assumption though, not entirely sure if that's the issue. I do know that when my husband who is tall puts the seat all the way back and puts his knees down it seems to resolve the issue.

I don't there is any sensing at the dash level - it's governed by a weight sensor in the passenger seat.
