I took my truck in to a dealership to fix the airbag recall. I do not believe they fixed it because the airbag light is still on on my dash board. It is the only light on as this truck is low miles and regularly maintained.. I asked them and they just said, "we fixed it." However, they did not.

On October 29, 2016 my airbag light came on and stayed on. Took it to Jenkins Nissan of Leesburg FL. They charged me $95.00 to check the problem, then said it would be $800.00 to replace the module but if that didn’t work the next thing they could try would be $1,000.00, but they could not guarantee that it would fix the problem. Then my tire pressure light came on and stayed on about 3 years ago…same scenario with Jenkins Nissan… you pay us, but no guarantee that they can fix it. Then my horn stopped working about a year ago. Same scenario with Jenkins Nissan. I took my truck to another mechanic, everything is fixed for one price. The problem with everything was evidently connected. These issues in my opinion are safety hazards and should be recalled.

Vehicle has flashing air bag light on. Dealer tells me the fix costs $2,500 dollars to repair! The vehicle has 59,757 miles on the odometer. The problem is a weight seat sensor in the passenger seat. The air bag light continues to flash when the vehicle is in motion. There has been a recall on this vehicle for the roof roll over (takata air bag sensor''?.)

Air bag light continuously stays on, according to manual it means there is a problem with air bag deploying in a accident, called nissan headquarters and they want $125.00 to see what the problem is. To me this should be corrected for free because this is a serious safety issue.
