FEDERAL regulators have indicated they are worried that Nissan's recall last year of almost one million vehicles did not correct a malfunction of the passenger airbag, raising the possibility that the automaker might have to recall the vehicles again.

The vehicles were recalled in March 2014 because a computer program could misjudge the weight of the person in the front passenger seat and conclude that a child instead of an adult was sitting there.
