1995 Nissan Sentra airbags complaints
Page 2 of 3: complaints 11 to 40 of 46, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Airbag light began flashing - dealer wants over $800.00 to repair. I feel this should be covered by the manufacturer as part of the safety equipment. Car was not involved in an accident or compromised in any way. In addition, I was told that the part was back ordered and probably would not be in for at least 30-45 days. What if it deploys on its own and I crash into someone else? This is a very scary situation to me and I would like some feedback or help in this matter. Thank you.
My wife was rearended and pushed into a SUV at a high rate of speed her car was totaled in the front as well as the back. At no time did the air bags deploy. She sufered severe whiplash. The dealership told me today that the air bags don't deploy in a rearend accident. I informed him the front of the car was hit as well his reply was the air bags dont deploy unless the car is moving at a high rate of speed he said the sensors in the front tires tell the air bags how fast you are going. Is that true? Please call me
