In most newer cars, no. Older cars may not even have an airbag for the passenger. In most cars that do however, there is a weight sensor in the passenger seat that turns the airbag on only if there is someone heavy enough in the seat. This prevents the airbag from deploying if no one is in the seat and also prevents it from going off if there is a small child in the passenger seat.

If the 2003 Honda Pilot EX is in a front left crashand no-one is in the passenger seat will the passenger side air bag deploy?

Yes, just yesterday I saw a 2003 Honda Pilot EX damaged on the front passenger fender/bumper. Both airbags (driver and passenger) were deployed. The seat belt for the driver side will need to be replaced if the driver was using it. The passenger seat belt will be fine if no one was sitting there. A friend from Oklahoma
