The air bag light glitches on the dashboard, it turns on and off. The only windows that open are the front door windows, the back side windows could barely crack open && the temperature inside the vehicle "with the windows open" reach dangerously high temperatures that literally are harmful and dangerous. A family vehicle with no ability to open any window on the 2 sliding doors, can lead to very high temperatures even though the front 2 windows open is still not enough for air to reach passengers who sit in the middle-row especially passengers who sit on the 3rd row seat in the back of the van. A recall must be done to adjust the windows on both sliding doors on each side to be able to roll down the windows... The temperature trapped inside the vehicle[passengers and seats area] with all the windows open was of 99, on a regular sunny day.... We drove to where we had to go and no type of air would reach the back seats where my daughter was sitting... She began to have problems breathing and was sweating so much.. I keep her hydrated especially when we have to drive far because the AC doesnt work and we cant roll any window in the back down sin e they dont roll down... When iturn on the AC the smell of gasoline begins to come out through the vents... My car wasnt included in any recall u had before which my car nissan quest sv 2004 clearly shouldve been included for the airbag recall....

3 months after we bought our van the air bag light went on...3 months after it was serviced for that the light went on again... A few months ago we noticed that when we accerlate the gas it wouldn't move...we almost got hit by another car due to the lack of speed it had..... Also the doors would rattle & we would hear a springy noise coming from the front right side brakes... Not to mention that in april of this yr our rear brakes & machine rotors had to be replaced. It's kinda disappointing that we pay good money for a car that has been in the shop 4 different times & we owned the van for 9 months!

Air bags: frontal: sensor/control module-inactiveReported March 1, 2004 · 13,757 vehicles affected
What is wrong
Certain passenger vehicles fail to comply with the advanced air bag requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 208, "occupant crash protection." the air bag for the front passenger seat is to be turned off (so that it does not inflate) when certain occupants, such as small children, are in the front seat.
Risk
This reduces the risk of such occupants being unjured by an inflating air bag in a collision.
Remedy
Dealers will inspect the front passenger seat cushion/sensor assembly. If the seat cushion/sensor is found to be operating improperly, the seat will be removed and recalibrated. Owner notification began on june 23, 2004. Owners should contact nissan at 1‑800‑647‑7261.
