The passenger airbag light stays illuminated regardless if there is a passenger in the seat or not. A diagnostic scan was run and it is Code= B00A0:00. This issue has been under recall for model years up to 2017 and my car is a 2018. There is a service bulletin for this issue and I have been quoted several thousand dollars to fix it. The car was not in an accident and nothing precipitated this issue. It literally happened upon starting the car one day. The 2018 model year Nissan Rogue's should be included in the earlier recall of Nissan Rogues. It's apparently now my responsibility to pay out-of-pocket to insure my son's safety as I have been told the airbag system WILL NOT ENGAGE if the car is in an accident when this light is on--and the light never turns off. There were no warnings leading up to this issue. The light randomly turned on one day and has stayed on virtually every time driven since. The dealer is well aware of this ongoing issue with the Nissan Rogue.
2018 Nissan Rogue airbags complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 32 of 32, newest first, as owners wrote them.
The passenger Occupant Classification System is malfunctioning. The weight sensor under the passenger side is no longer detecting an adult sitting in the passenger seat. This part is able to be fixed but costs 8,000-9,000 to replace the whole seat and the sensor. The safety of anyone sitting in my car is at risk, with the airbag light on because the sensor malfunctioned the air bags will no longer deploy in the event of a car accident. This light has been on since I got the car as a lease. Instead of the dealership fixing it the illegally pushed my car through inspection. The same model of my car was recalled for years 2014- 2017 for the same exact reason and problem I am having with this vehicle. I have done extensive research on the matter and it is a VERY COMMON problem with this vehicle. So many others with the same model as me and other models as well including infinity have resorted to buying a Nissan 360 airbag emulator to override the airbag weight sensor, so that in a result of an accident, the airbags will still function. This is a temporary solution and shouldn't be something the owners of this vehicle have to deal with especially when the same model from a year before was recalled for this reason.
The right passenger airbag is faulty and Nissan will not replace
The contact owned a 2018 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated while pulling out of a parking lot and attempting to make a left turn, another vehicle crashed into the front driver' side of the vehicle and damaged the entire front end of the vehicle. The air bags failed to deploy. The contact hit her head on the steering wheel. The contact sustained pain on the left side of the body and was transported to the hospital with the assistance of emergency units, but was not diagnosed. The contact sought assistance from a chiropractor, who informed her that she had sustained a left neck and shoulder sprain. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to a tow lot, and was then towed to a salvaged lot, where it was totaled. The dealer was notified of the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that they could not assist because she had signed over the vehicle to a salvaged yard. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.
Airbag censor on the passenger side has malfunctioned and cannot detect an adult passenger and air bag has turned off.
I was in a auto accident. The drivers seat (side airbag) deployed as well as the curtain airbag. This accident hasn’t been shown to my dealership because the car is sitting in a junk yard. The side airbag that came out of my seat hit me so hard that it burned me through 3 layers of clothing and gave me a third degree burn about the size of a grapefruit. I have yet to have my insurance inspect this, but it just looks like a deployed airbag and it ripped open my seat. I was being burned. The burn on my clothes was hard around the edges like how polyester burns. It was unimaginable pain.
Supplemental airbag light stays on.
The car was in an accident. The car's front was what was impacted from the very front of the car. So much car damage was done was that the the car was considered total. The airbags never deployed. It caused injury to the driver.
My car was in a collision and it is a total loss. The accident was a head collision on with a parked car, the airbags to not deploy during the accident. This is a safety issue I am very concerned about due to the damage to the car.
Had an accident to which passenger door area was the impact zone of a collision yet passenger front and side airbags did deploy yet only my front driver airbag deployed. My side airbag did not and I sustained injuries from being rammed against side whereas I wouldn’t have had it deployed. Also, wanted to note that while the passenger airbag did deploy my daughter still hit the windshield in midst of it deploying. Something to look into. Won’t let me upload, sorry. You can email me and I will send them that way.
Front end collision at 40mph, no braking/warning, no air bags deployed
The air bag light keeps coming on and it stays on. Along with the forward collision light. That lights comes on whenever I try and brake.

While turning on an off ramp the steering gave out and locked, causing the car to drive directly into the guard rail. Yes the car was moving but stealthily as I slowed down to make the turn. The car was thrown from the left guard rail to the right side causing extensive damage and no airbag deployed in the event of this crash. The car was no longer able to move from such a drastic accident and yet it was not enough for the airbags to even attempt to save our lives. There were kids in the car! Thank the heavens we were able to get out of the wreck alive. One wheel was turned inward as it attempted to turn while the right front wheel stayed straight. It was a nightmare and we are all still shaken up by this.

Airbag light on
Car accelerated on it's own while parking. Jumped over the stop and crashed into a building. Automatic braking system did not stop the car and air bags did not engage. This car has been serviced for braking for no reason and a new transmission has been installed and now this. I believe this is a lemon. Love the car but to many problems. No my car insurance premiums will rise or be cancelled.
My air bags do not work.

This is not about an accident. The passenger side air bag in this car does not always come on when I sit in the seat. I am a small adult, around 94 pounds. The dealership did all they could. I did some research and found that complaints have been made to nissan about this issue since 2013. When I called nissan consumer relations I was told that there was nothing that they could do for me. The service manager at the dealership expected that they would send an engineer to fix it.
