I have a 2013 cross trek. Love everything about it except this: when my dog comes with me for a ride and sits in the passenger seat she sets of the fasten your seatbelt chime. ( she weighs 12 lbs, slightly ridiculous if you ask me but that's not the point). I know that there's a way to disable the sensor for the passenger seat but I can't find it... Please help!!!!

This is probably the safest way to deal with it.  Fool the car to make it think the belt is on. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Universal-Car-Safety-Seat-Belt-Buckle-Alarm-Canceller-Stopper-Eliminator-Black-/161055967532?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item257faf092c&vxp=mtr#ht_2769wt_926

There are several videos on youtube on how to disable chimes.

Some cars have a switch in the glove box, others you have to do a rain dance and secret handshake which should be outlined in the owners manual.

With the xv, it involves opening and closing the door, turning the key on and off and clicking and unclicking the driver's seatbelt 20 times. Secret handshake indeed.
