It is common for airbag switches in many car models to *not* to activate if a smaller/lighter person sits in a non-standard way ( indian style, off to one side, etc), and with sport-style seats with higher side bolsters on the bottom cushion ( as is the case with the370z), it is even more sensitive to non-standard body positions.
she was sitting like that to try to trip the light to see if it changed anything... it didn't. She sits normally and sometimes it will come on and sometimes it won't. It's a Nissan issue as several people here have commented they have had the issue as well.

I'm going to send an email to Nissan, or call them directly.
