Airbag light up
Tl* the contact owns a 2005 nissan murano. While operating the vehicle, the SRS sensor indicator continued to flash. The vehicle was taken to pocatello nissan (1900 flandro dr, pocatello, id) where it was diagnosed that the air bag control sensor was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. Also, while operating the vehicle, the driver's side seat back moved because the seat frame was fractured. The seat was repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failures. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was 120,000.
Back in april my murano would turn off whether I was accelerating or just sitting at a stop light, the brake light and battery light would come on and vehicle wouldnt start back up, ended up having it towed 3 different times to mechanic who couldnt figure out what was wrong because it wasnt showing any codes so from there had it towed to newton nissan where it took them 10 days to diagnose it was the alternator (replaced battery first but that didnt work)ended up getting the nissan alternator versus aftermarket for the warranty, get it back everything is fine, now in august alternator fails out again, back to newton nissan we go, the replace "alternator" and when I get it back power steering isnt working so after the fixed that everything was fine until it started shutting off on me again like the very first time. Meanwhile ive had to pay over $1000 for the alternator work which was recalled however my VIN didnt fall under the recall. Engine compartment and hood of car are also so hot you cant touch them even after just driving 1 mile in 70 degreee weather however the temperature gauge isnt running high. Now the airbag light is flashing on and off upon starting. I tried cycling the engine nurmerous times but the light is still on. Nissan said they will have to replace whole unit for $5000 because they cant pin point airbag issue. Airbag issue isnt fixed and nobody can tell me if I have a working air bag or not. Im not sure if I need to contact an attorney because im now concerned about the safety of my 4 year old daughter while in the vehicle.
The air bag light is flashing. I read on line that this is very common and has been reported as a faulty switch. I would like to have this repaired for safety reasons. As I understand it nissan is aware. Please advise.
Good afternoon, the airbag sensor was on, and I was affected by the horn, and the functions that are used in the steering wheel
Car loses power while driving. Codes p1700 and c1210 pop up in computer. No one can tell me what is wrong. Airbag light is on. No one can turn it off or tell me if it will work.
Takata recall- one morning got into my car and when I started the engine I notice that the airbag red light started flashing on the panel and since then it keeps me worry that this airbag may come out by accident while I am driving. I am very nervous to drive my car due to this warning
