Airbag warning light by model year
What owners say
What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Code: B1018, OCS Sensor failure in passenger seat which controls the passenger airbags. Passenger side airbag light kicks on thinking there is a "child" or something light in the front seat which disables the airbag. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Passenger side airbag light kicks on thinking there is a "child" or something light in the front seat which disables the airbag. This is a known issue of the manufacturer but yet the refuse to include other years of these vehicles in their recall. There even has been a lawsuit on their "fix" because they just continue to use the same sensors even when replacing the recalled vehicles sensors. They also expect you to pay 2700 to replace an ENTIRE seat cushion to replace said sensor. I am sorry but poor people do not have that kind of money laying around. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes was reproduced and confirmed by a local Nissan Deal. They even cleared the code and within 2 weeks it appeared again in the same way/format. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear?

2011 nissan rouge: the passenger air bag light that indicates the passenger airbag is not active illuminates with an adult seating in the passenger seat. The red airbag warning light on the dashboard cluster flashes. The dealer where I purchased the car states that the airbag will not deploy in a crash. The dealer wants to charge me thousands of dollars to repair this because the car is out of warranty. A web search will find many many nissan cars with this problem. People have been hurt and killed due to nissan cars failure to deploy the airbag. The car is unsellable and unsafe. The govermment should require nissan to fix this problem without cost to the car owner before more people are hurt and killed.

1 owner car. Mileage 80,000. Air bag lights came on by seat and on dash even when an adult is sitting in passenger seat when ignition is on. Took to dealership and was told entire seat must be replaced because of the sensor at a cost of $3000. This a safety issue that has been reported by many people. This a manufacturing defect. They kept putting this part in even after they starting failing in 2008, 2009, 2010 models. We are required for this to work to get our cars inspected. That is half the value of the car. The entire seat must be replaced??!!?? I don't know if the bag will deploy or not if there is an accident. How long until the other one fails.
There have been numerous complaints made about the passenger side air bag defect in the 2011 nissan rouge. My car failed the state inspection because the air bag light was blinking on the dash board. I took my car to the nissan dealership as no one else was able too. Nissan informed me that the air bag sensor in the passenger seat was malfunctioning and would have to be replaced. The only way to replace the sensor is to completely replace the passenger side seat at a price of $2,000. If the sensor is so buried in the passenger seat that the entire seat has to be replaced, then that is a factory defect and is nissan's responsibility to fix it at their expense. You would think that with all the complaints and the fact that this is a major safety hazard, nissan would want to recall and have this problem fixed! Of course, then they couldn't collect $2,000 for every seat replaced for this defect. The warning light just started blinking about a month ago, but who knows how long the air bag has been defective , maybe the light doesn't blink until it is critical because the air bag button always showed the air bag as off no matter how big or small the person sitting in the seat was. This is a safety hazard and attention should be paid!
"takata recall"my 2011 nissan rogue airbag light started blinking while driving to work in my local area. It continues to blink while car idles as well. I had it looked at that afternoon at garage. They said problem in driver side airbag not working. Confused as this is a safety feature factory installed and yet I as the consumer must maintain faulty safety equipment as well as daily maintenance to this vehicle. Just spent 2000.00 dollars at nissan getting all maintenance required done.now this too.
