Couple of things, first the front passenger air bag is set to off when there is an adult sitting there, and I have a blinking airbag light, at all times no matter what. Second, there is a loud noise coming from the engine when I turn my heater on. I can also feel the vibration when I'm still. The SUV only has about 44k miles. I see this is a common issue that has not been addressed. I'm definitely disappointed.

I was backing from a parking space when I struck a passing car with the boat hitch on my rear bumper. It was a low-impact collision as we were both moving slowly in a parking lot. After getting out of the car to speak with the other driver, I returned to find that all of the air bags on the passenger side of my car (including front passenger seat and curtains from the front window to the rear) had deployed. No one was in the car at the time of impact but me. None of the air bags on the drivers side of the car deployed. I know nissan has had passenger air bag problems in the past and before the accident, mine often showed that air bags were on when no one was in the passenger seat. Your database says there are no recalls on my VIN number so I assume that previous owners had the matter addressed before I bought the car from a nissan dealership in 2018. My circumstance isn't identical to the air bag recall but is certainly ironic. Although I wasn't hurt, the air bags surely didn't help me. The wrong ones deployed and will cost $6,500 to replace. Can you do anything to help me?

Air bag light is going off

Filed Mar 24, 2017 · Airbags, Body · 33,000 miles · AL · crash · fire

I was involved in an accident where another car clipped the back bumper of my pathfinder going trough an intersection. It was enough to deploy my curtain airbags on the drivers side and the seat air bag in the drivers seat, but did minor damage to the back bumper on the drivers side. But, after everyone was out of my pathfinder, a police officer noticed a fire inside the pathfinder. It was located on the panel between the drivers side door and the back door on the drivers side. I don't have pictures (I didn't think to take any) and my insurance company is handling the police report and all the details, but the officer asked me to report this issue to you so I am.

This pertains to 16v244000... With the exception of starting the vehicle, I had never seen this light come on until recently. My pathfinder is largely used to move my children (both under the age of 4) to and from activities and run errands. 90% of the time I am driving there is no one in the front passenger seat. My wife rides upfront for family road trips and on the weekends. It was just recently that the light came on while she was in the seat alerting me to the faulty sensor. I called my local nissan dealer and was advised that they did have a solution to this recall and could fix the issue that week. I took the car and waited patiently. Upon exiting the service center and getting ready to turn onto a major highway I noticed that the light was on... Figuring someone had forgotten to reset something I turned around and returned to the dealership. There I was advised that, from now on, my passenger airbag warning light would remain on unless someone over 50lbs was seated in the passenger seat. I was shocked and complained to the service tech but was informed that nissan had decided that cars with this issue would have a permanently disengaged passenger airbag if the seat was not occupied. I firmly believe that, rather than fixing this issue correctly with the same but functioning oem parts, nissan has decided to implement a recall fix that saves them time and money. I tried getting accustomed to this warning light but it is the same color as my blind spot warning alerts so seeing it my peripheral vision is a constant distraction. I believe that the fix offered will ultimately make drivers ambivalent to the blind spot system and lead to a higher collision rate.

I received a recall notice in may regarding the ocs that affects the passenger airbag. I went to the dealership in june and was told the parts were not in yet for replacement. I went again in september and was then told that the parts are on manufacturer restriction and they were unable to replace/repair. It has been 5 months since receiving the recall notice and nothing has been done to fix the issue. Airbags are a very big deal and want to know how can I get this fixed asap.

Takata recall you previous webpage mentions the manufacturer acquiring the parts to repair in a timely manner. My question is, what do you consider a timely manner? I received my recall notice approximately 6 months or more ago, but I haven't heard anything else regarding nissan repairing the faulty airbags. I'm getting more and more concerned daily about my family's or my safety. When is nissan going to get off their behinds and repair or replace the faulty airbags?

I had problems with my air bag sensor ever since I bought the car. Every once in a while when I had a passenger in the front seat the air bag would deactivate. Originally the service manager stated that my purse must be to heavy and is knocking out the calibration. The second time I got a lesson on how to sit in the seat properly. Finally, nissan admitted there was a problem and announced the recall. Since it was happening more and more frequently the dealer put me on the top of the list to call when they received the parts. Saturday I finally was able to bring the car in for the air bag ocs sensor recall repair. When I picked the car up after the service I noticed that the passenger air bag warning light stayed on continuously. According to the manual "after placing the ignition switch in the on position, the supplemental air bag warning light illuminates. The supplemental air bag warning light will turn off after about 7 seconds if the system is operational". I went back inside and mentioned it to the service manager and was told that was the fix that nissan implemented. The warning light is now on constantly unless someone is in the passenger seat. This does not seem right and goes against everything in the nissan manual. Additionally, having a warning light on at night in the vehicle is a distraction.
