Default New 2008 Xterra and airbag issues

Howdy,
Apparently my athletic mountain bike racing 5' 5" wife isn't heavy enough (102 pounds) to activate the passenger airbag. This sux and after looking around the net I don't see a way to permanently turn on the bag. I'm NOT going to drive it if she has no bag. Any suggestions??
Thanks

It works fine with my 135 pounds. Our other vehicle is a Prius and there is no problem with it. I've read a few things on the net indicating that Nissan has had a problem with this for years. Here we go.....
