At 45,000 miles the air bag light came on. Dealers wants an arm, a leg, and half of the other leg to fix. This is a common problem and there is not a recall yet. Dealer says they can start replacing parts but that may not fix the problem. Verbal estimate could be around $3,200 to start! Care is pristine, garage kept, never seen rain or snow. Help! Please make nissan fix this know issue.

Air bag lights have been flashing for 3 years whether parked or in motion, dealership says $1500 to diagnose but believes bags are not functioning and advises to "drive safely" if I decide not to repair. Not on recall list which is unreal this is a safety issues as bags will not go off if in a collision according to dealership.

I wan't told it was a takata recall. My air bag light went on 9 times and I only have 41k on the car. Every time the dealer told me it came from the seats.

Takata recall I own a 2005 nissan 350 z. The airbag light has been on for a few years now. The dealership told me that it would cost 1000 to fix it. I've in florida (very humid). Why has my car's airbags not been recalled?

I bought this vehicle used about 5 years ago. About 2 years ago I started to have a flashing air bag light on for no reason. This happens randomly usually when I just start the car up. As with most owners in the north I don't drive it in the winter so I put on around 35k since I bought it. I searched the web to see if anyone was having the same problem and they sure were. I tried the reset procedure found online and it worked for awhile. Now it comes on more often and I just try to reset it again. It didn't take much searching to find out that nissan is charging owners (my year) $600-3,000 to repair and the problem came back for some again. Some even reported having an accident and the bags did not deploy. I have not had it to a dealer simply because I can't afford to replace the seats some have had to.

Like so many others that I have read, my airbag light flashes for the passengers side airbag. I am a second owner of this car that has never been involved in a wreck of any kind. This car has been babied by me as well as the previous owner. It is garage kept and hardly ever driven. Milage is only 52000 after 11 years!! Light has been reset but still comes back on. This is obviously a manufactured defect and if someone is hurt because of no action I will sue nissan as well as the federal safety agency for not doing anything about it!!!

My car hasn't been in an accident or anything and yet my airbag light is flashing and my airbags are disconnected. I don't understand why my airbags won't be fixed by nissan I'm not sure when this happened. And I'm not sure about the miles. Nissan will have this.

Airbag light is constantly going on, even after resetting numerous times. After reading other complaints about this issue, air bag failing is a common issue with this car. I would appreciate if the federal safety agency would open an investigation into premature airbag failure in 350zs.

Swerved car to avoid hitting a deer. When I straightened out the car the air bag light was on. Took car to the dealer who said I needed to install a whole passenger seat. Approx $1500-2000 dollars. When checking out different websites there are many many complaints about air bag lights going on. All were told seats needed to be replaced. This car has on 25000 miles now. As I only use the car when I am by myself for fear of the passenger airbag not going off. Can't even sell the car with this problem.
