2014 NISSAN ALTIMA Air Bags Problems

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while her daughter was driving at an undisclosed speed, the air bag and check engine warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was determined that the air bag might deploy at any time, and that the clock spring, the steering wheel, and possibly the driver’s seat needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 170,000.

Mileage: 170,000

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while the vehicle was parked, the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that the wiring in the front driver's side seat was damaged, and the rear of the driver's side seat needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 165,000.

When an adult is riding in the front passenger seat the airbag on the passenger turns off and on randomly while riding. If in an accident I am worried that the airbag will not go off properly. I have not contacted a dealer about this issue yet. I have not seen any other warning lights other than the passenger airbag is off.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that the air bag warning light had been illuminated on the instrument panel after the vehicle was serviced for an air bag recall(recall unknown). Years later, the check engine warning light also appeared on the instrument panel, and the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic. The mechanic diagnosed the check engine light failure; however, the mechanic also informed the contact that the air bag warning light needed to be checked and referred the contact back to the dealer. The contact called the dealer that performed the recall and informed them about the failure that occurred years prior. The contact was informed that due to the long stretch of time that had passed since the repair, the contact would have to pay for a diagnostic to be performed on the vehicle. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer and spoke to a manager who later agreed to wave the diagnostic fee. The contact was then informed that the back seat assembly and side air bag sensor had failed; the contact was given an estimate for the repair. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was unknown.

Rear lower control replaced on recall repair. Dealer diagnosed front control arm needed repair but refuse to complete repair. I paid out of pocket for front. When both front and rear control arm should have been replace under recall

Components that failed: -2019 & 2023 Entire headlight assembly 2x - with continuous wiring in headlight that must be adjusted before every drive. -2021 Internal lighting to illuminate the gear shift, which no longer works. -2021 Heater constantly squeals like a pig and blows every fuse, 😑 once the several fuse boxes were located. -2017 Engine revs up to 3k-4k rpm's while driving a steady 40 mph. Car went to shop after purchase for this, which is now starting again 6 yrs later. -2022 Window tint is impossible to see through and crispy to the touch. -2017 Engine sputters and car shakes signaling that the 3k miles are almost up and it's time for an oil change. -Years ago- There was a recall for passenger airbags, which hasn't been fixed, but also isn't showing up here. -Mechanics, State Inspections etc have been done as normal.

There was an airbag recall around 2016 for airbags. I took it to the dealer and they checked it out and said there was no problem. Now my air bag light stays on and the dealer says I need a new air bag in the driver's seat. Is this airbag covered under the recall?

-The component that malfunctioned is the airbag light for my vehicle, and yes it is available for inspection upon request. -My safety and others are at risk because my airbag may not deploy if I get into an accident. -The manufacturer (at a local Nissan dealership) diagnosed the problem after an inspection, which confirmed it was an airbag light for the driver's seat airbag. There is currently a warning lamp that's turned on. After the dealership's inspection, they turned off the warning lamp, but it turned back on within a month. There were no other symptoms that could have prompted and provoked this warning lamp to be triggered.

The air bag system light comes on, the code is B0020 - Side A/B module LH, and I am able to reset the system with a code scanner. The light goes out and operates normally for a few days or weeks, then without warning the A/B illuminates again for no apparent reason. I understand this is not a component problem but a wiring issue. I have read that the path the wire harness takes from the connector under the driver's seat to the side air bag device has two tight pinch point bends causing the wiring to intermittently break the connection causing the A/B light to come on and shut off the system. The fix, I understand, is to replace the driver's seat back at a cost of $1,600. Why isn't there a recall on this? From what I see on the web this seems to be a common problem to this vehicle. This is not a wear and tear issue or abuse, the vehicle owner has not done anything to cause the wiring problem. The problem was built into the vehicle when it was manufactured by the routing of the wiring. I understand the problem will continue until the wiring fully breaks inside the wiring insulation covering and it can no longer be reset. Since this is a safety issue causing the A/B system not to operate properly why hasn't there been a push to get the manufacturer to own up to the error and repair the vehicle at no cost or offer a substantial discount. I am not sure how many vehicles have been affected and many owners may have a difficult time justifying this expense to a 9 year old vehicle for an issue they had no control. Can NHTSA offer advice or assistance with pushing for owner cost relief from the manufacturer?

My son was involved in an accident this weekend. A car pulled out in front of him and he hit them going between 45 and 55 MPH. None of his airbags deployed in his 2014 nissan altima. He had his seat belt on, but instead of the airbag keeping him from hitting the steering wheel like it should we ended up in the ER with chest pain. Thankfully he is ok along with his passenger, but I feel the airbags should have deployed. I'm not sure who I need to speak to about this. As is can see all of the black car's airbags deployed.

1. Airbag warning light is on. 2. Unable to roll down front passenger window from driver’s side master window control switch.

Air bag warning light came on, took car to Nissan dealer who checked into this issue. We are told airbag is fine, however, the device that would inflate it is defective and that it would cost me $1300 to replace the defective part. This car has never been in a wreck and I feel that the manufacture should replace a defective part of an item that has never been deployed. Or at the very least meet this original owner somewhere in between.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that the air bag warning light was illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer who was unable to determine the air bag failure, however, while the contact was getting their transmission repaired they noticed the air bag warning light was no longer illuminated. Approximately 2 months after the repair the air bag warning light had illuminated again. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 120,000.

Mileage: 120,000

I have never been in a wreck or have had any reason for my airbags to not work. My driverside airbag light stays on now and my passenger side turns off randomly even when someone is sitting in it, including my 6'2, 180 lb, 16 year old son.

In a front end collision going over 65 mph my airbags did not deploy. Car was not drivable and was totaled.

The air bag light came on, on November 2021, and stays on all the time. When I took the car to the dealer to check what was wrong with it I was told the airbag might not deploy in case of impact. The car is less than 8 years old, but I was told it was not under warranty and there was no recall for that. I was told they had to replace two parts: 98820-9HN9ASensor-Side AIRBAG Center and 87650-9HP3ABack Assembly Front Seat, for a total cost of approximately $2400, but the parts were not available. The money was refunded to me three months later and the parts have not been replaced. I do not feel safe driving the car around; unfortunately it is the only car I have. The car is available for inspection upon request.

Airbag warning light in instrument panel is illuminated red and does not go off. I was told by my Nissan dealership this is not included in the recall for the passenger side airbag problem that I had previously. My vehicle has not been in any accident that would have caused the airbags to deploy and there has not been any type of water damage that could have damaged the sensor to the airbag.

The contact's wife owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that at start-up, the air bag warning light illuminated on the instrument panel. The contact took the vehicle to a dealer and was informed to call the manufacturer to see if the repair would be covered under warranty. The manufacturer agreed to pay 60% for the cost of the repair; however, once the repair was performed, the failure persisted. The contact returned the vehicle to the same dealer and the manufacturer agreed to pay for the full repair of the air bag unit. Despite the second repair, the failure persisted, and the manufacturer stated that the repair was no longer covered. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

I was driving on the interstate and a deer struck my vehicle going approximately 60-65 mph. None of the airbags deployed.The sensor lights were not on and did not indicate any airbag sensor issues. The incident damaged the radiator and my vehicle had to be towed. I could have potentially suffered a serious physical injury. Insurance representatives were contacted and the vehicle is at the repair shop currently.

On May 9, 2014, I took in my 2014 Nissan Altima (which was still under warranty) to the dealership to repair the airbag sensor light since it came on even with someone in the passenger seat who weighed over 130 pounds. The Nissan service technician checked it and failed to duplicate the concern. Sometime after that, Nissan performed a recall on the sensor. After the recall, I again took the car in as the sensor still came on periodically incorrectly. This was on 10/11/16. At that time, they said the programming had not been completed and so they completed it. This also did not fix the sensor. I took it in again on May 10, 2017. The notes on the repair order say: "Customer states intermit when passenger is occupies in front passenger seat the passenger side air bag light comes on check and advise. No active codes. Performed zero point reset." Nothing was found again. Frustrated, I didn't know what to do. Fast forward to today (August 23, 2021), I took it in to finally resolve the issue as I am interested in selling it soon. I was shocked that they came back and said it would cost me $1010.68 to fix something that I have tried to get them to fix for 7 years. This faulty sensor is dangerous and they have refused to fix something that never worked from the start despite there being a recall.

The vehicle does not detect the front passenger.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving 15 MPH and coming to a stop, another vehicle crashed into the passenger side of the vehicle. The air bags did not deploy. The contact sustained injuries that she did not want to disclose and required medical attention the next day. A police report was filed. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The dealer and manufacturer were not made aware of the failure. The approximate mileage failure was 76,000.

Mileage: 76,000

The airbag light is always on. When the car is taken to a dealer for inspection, they said that the sensor under the seat is not working properly. We worry that the airbag may not deploy during an accident because the seat cannot sense the people sitting on it. It is definitely dangerous The problem has been identified by a Nissan dealer. The vehicle was inspected by the manufacturer. The airbag light stays on, even after the dealer clearing the code. It seems a lot of Nissan Altima have a similar problem.

AS OF NOVEMBER 2020, THE AIRBAG INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND REMAINED ON. IT INITIALLY OCCURRED WHEN STARTING THE CAR AND THERE WERE NO PASSENGERS. MY CONCERN IS WHETHER THE AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY PROPERLY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, WHICH IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

I DON'T KNOW IF THE AIRBAG IS WORKING PROPERLY OR NOT. I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO THE NISSAN DEALER IN LEESBURG, FL LAST WEEK FOR ROUTINE SERVICE AND TOLD THEM ABOUT THE PROBLEM. THEY PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND DID NOT FIND ANY FAULT CODES. THEY THEN GOT IN AND OUT OF THE SEAT SEVERAL TIMES AND SAID THE AIRBAG LIGHT DISPLAYED PROPERLY. THE NEXT DAY WITH AN ADULT PASSENGER IN THE SEAT THE LIGHT AGAIN SHOWED UNOCCUPIED. WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A RECALL REGARDING THIS PROBLEM.

2014 NISSAN ALTIMA 2.5SL AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYS ON

THE SYSTEM THAT DETERMINES WHETHER THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY ON MY VEHICLE IS NOT FUNCTIONING AND IS DEFAULTING THE AIRBAG TO NOT DEPLOY. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY DEALER FOR A QUOTE AND WAS TOLD IT WILL COST UP TO $1,800.00 TO FIX. I KNOW THERE HAS BEEN AT LEAST ONE RECALL PERTAINING TO THIS SYSTEM ALREADY (RECALL NUMBER 15V681000). I ALSO ASKED IF THERE WAS A WAY TO HAVE THE AIRBAG ALWAYS SET TO DEPLOY BUT WAS TOLD THAT WAS NOT POSSIBLE. AN $1,800.00 FIX FOR A CRITICAL SAFETY FEATURE IS A HAZARD THAT WILL DRIVE PEOPLE TO ACCEPT UNDUE RISK. A RECALL FOR AFFECTED NISSAN VEHICLES TO REPLACE THE SYSTEM OR WHICH WOULD DEFAULT THE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY WOULD MITIGATE THE RISK TO THE POPULATION.

HE SUGGESTED THAT I SHOULDN'T DRIVE THE CAR, BUT THE PART IS NOT READILY AVAILABLE ANY WHERE IN THE UNITED STATES? WHAT KIND OF GARBAGE IS THAT? THEY OFFERED ME NO SOLUTION TO MY PROBLEM, AND I DON'T HAVE ANOTHER CAR TO DRIVE, AND THEY CAN'T EVEN TELL ME WHEN THE PART WILL BECOME AVAILABLE????

TAKATA RECALL..... IT STATES WHEN YOU PUT THE VIN NUMBER IN THAT MY CAR WAS NOT IN THE RECALL. MY HUSBAND AND I ARE IN OUR LATE 70'S AND EARLY 80'S AND LOVE THE CAR, BUT ARE NOW AFRIAD TO DRIVE THE CAR BECAUSE OF THE AIRBAGS. CAN YOU PLEASE HAVE THESE AIRBAGS REPLACED FOR OUR SAFETY. I KNOW THESE TAKATA AIRBAGS HAVE ALREADY BEEN RECALLED, WHY WAS MY CAR NOT INCLUDED? NISSAN DEALER STATES THAT THERE IS NO, TAKATA AIRBAGS. FOR MY SAFETY AND THAT OF MY HUSBAND. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE MY AIRBAGS REPLACED AND FREE FOR CHARGE, BECAUSE OF THE HASSLE THAT I'M GOING THROUGH.

AFTER TAKING IN MY ALTIMA 2014 SV FOR A RECALL ON THE AIRBAG SENSORS, THE ISSUE DID NOT GO AWAY. THE ISSUE IS THAT THERE IS THAT ABOUT HALF THE TIMES A PASSENGER SITS NEXT TO THE DRIVER SEAT, THE AIRBAG SYSTEM DOES NOT DETECT THEM. I AM HAVING TO RESTART THE CAR FOR SECURITY PURPOSES IN CASE SOMETHING ENDS UP HAPPENING. I AM ALSO HAVING AN ISSUE WITH MY AC SYSTEM. I REPLACED THE COMPRESSOR A YEAR AGO AND IT SEEMS TO BE FAILING AGAIN. AS A SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEER I CAN SAFELY SAY THAT THERE IS DEFINITELY AN ISSUE WITH THEIR SOFTWARE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE AT A STOP SIGN, THE CONTACT LOOKED BOTH WAYS. UPON ACCELERATING, A TRUCK CRASHED INTO THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED WITH EXTREME FORCE FOR THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE. THE CURTAIN SIDE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE DRIVER'S LEFT EYE WAS DAMAGED, WHICH AFFECTED THE CORNEA, AND THE DRIVER ALSO SUSTAINED BRUISING ACROSS THE CHEST AND BACK PAINS. THE FRONT PASSENGER SUSTAINED BRUISING TO THE ARMS, CHEST, AND HIPS. THE DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER RECEIVED MEDICAL TREATMENT. THE INSURANCE COMPANY TOWED THE VEHICLE TO A YARD. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED TO DETERMINE THE AIR BAG ISSUE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS LATER NOTIFIED OF THE CRASH. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 46,000.

Mileage: 41,533

THE LIGHT INDICATING A PERSON IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT DOES NOT OPERATE ALL THE TIME. THE DEALER HAS PROGRAMED IT TWICE. THE DEALER IS FRUSTRATED AS THEY HAVE SEVERAL OTHER CUSTOMERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THE DEALER ASKED ME TO CONTACT NISSAN DIRECTLY WHICH I DID. I WAS TOLD TODAY BY A SPECIALISTS FROM NISSAN THAT I HAVE TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN WHEN IT IS DOING IT, I EXPLAINED IT IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM AND I WOULD BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO LEAVE THE VEHICLE WITH THE DEALER. SHE INFORMED ME THIS WAS NOT ACCEPTABLE THAT I HAVE TO BRING IT IN WHEN IT IS NOT OPERATING PROPERLY. I GUESS SHE COULD NOT COMPREHEND THE FACT THAT IT IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM, MOST LIKELY DUE TO A FAULTY T PASSENGER SIDE SENSOR IN THE SEAT. THE PASSENGER WEIGHTS IS AROUND 120 POUNDS SO SHE IS HEAVY ENOUGH FOR THE SENSOR TO PICKUP HER WEIGHT. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE AIR BAG MIGHT NOT DEPLOY DURING AN ACCIDENT. MOST OF THE TIME WHEN THE VEHICLE LIGHTS ACTS UP IS WHEN WE FIRST START OUT. THERE IS NO SET PATTERN TO CREATE THIS PROBLEM, MIGHT BE OK FOR A WEEK OR TWO THEN COULD DO IT TWO OR THREE DAYS IN A ROW AND MAYBE GO OUT BY IT SELF. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR SEVERAL MONTHS, MAYBE CLOSE TO A YEAR.

RECEIVED THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V244000 UPDATE FOR OCS ERROR ON PASSENGER AIRBAG. I HAD SUBMITTED A COMPLAINT REGARDING THIS AFTER NISSAN'S PREVIOUS UPDATE DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THIS ISSUE IS STILL NOT RESOLVED. AFTER 2 MONTHS OF USE I AM SEEING THAT WHEN MY WIFE IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT THE AIRBAG LIGHT NOTIFYING ME THAT THERE IS NO PASSENGER IN THE PASSENGER SEAT STAYS ON STILL. I CAN 'RESET' BY TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTARTING IT BUT CAN NOT BE POSITIVE THAT THE VEHICLE IS ACTUALLY 'SEEING' THE PASSENGER. THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY BIG ISSUE WITH NISSAN AND WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IT RESOLVED. I HAVE NOT TALKED WITH THEM SINCE WHEN I DO THE ANSWER I'VE PREVIOUSLY GOTTEN IS "WE'VE COMPLETED THE UPDATE AND DON'T KNOW WHY IT'S NOT WORKING FOR YOU" BRING IT IN AND WE'LL LOOK - TO NO AVAIL. SO I PREFER NOT TO LET THEM PLAY AROUND SINCE RESETTING THE COMPUTER DOES NOTHING.

NISSAN ISSUED RECALL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR THAT DISENGAGES THE AIRBAG WHEN A GROWN ADULT IS SEATED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT.

MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS COME ON FOR THE FOURTH TIME SINCE NEW. (TODAYS DATE 09/26/2016) THE FIRST TWO TIMES, NISSAN RESET IT AND CONVENIENTLY DIDN'T MAKE A RECORD OF IT IN THE REPAIR HISTORY WHILE IT WAS IN WARRANTY. I TOOK IT IN A FEW WEEKS AGO BECAUSE THE LIGHT WAS ON AGAIN, THEY SAID IT WAS A LOOSE CONNECTION UNDER THE SEAT CAUSED BY A BOX OF KLEENEX, WHICH I THINK IS NOT TRUE. LAST WEEK THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AGAIN WITH NOTHING UNDER THE SEAT. THIS TIME, THEY SAID I NEED A NEW AIRBAG AT A COST OF $1100, CLAIMING I NEVER BROUGHT IT IN FOR THE DRIVERS SIDE AND THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT BECAUSE MY CAR NOW HAS 70K MILES ON IT, NEVER-MIND IT IS ONLY 2 YEARS OLD. MY MAIN CONCERN IS THAT THIS CLEAR AND OBVIOUS DEFECT CAUSES A SIGNIFICANT RISK TO THE OCCUPANTS BECAUSE IT PREVENTS ANY OF THE AIRBAGS FROM DEPLOYING IN AN ACCIDENT. I CANNOT AFFORD TO SPEND OVER $1000 ON A PART THAT SHOULD NEVER GO BAD ON A CAR THAT IS ONLY 2 YEARS OLD. FYI: THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON EVERY TIME AND EVERY TIME IT CAME ON THERE WAS NOBODY IN THE BACK SEAT, NOR WAS THE SEAT BEING ADJUSTED OR WAS ANYTHING INTERFERING WITH THE PLUG, AS NISSAN TRIES TO CLAIM.

RANDOMLY THIS OCCURS, WHEN SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT THE AIR BAG SIGN FOR THAT SEAT WILL SAY OFF. ON OUR LAST TRIP WE LEFT A STOP AND ENTERED THE HIGHWAY BUT THE LIGHT STAYED ON INDICATING THE AIR BAG WAS NOT ACTIVATED. WE HAD TO DRIVE LIKE THAT UNTIL WE COULD SAFELY STOP. WE THEN TURNED OFF THE IGNITION AND STARTED THE CAR AGAIN, AND THIS TIME THE AIR BAG OFF LIGHT DID NOT STAY LIT. WE HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE AT THE DEALER 6 TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM. BECAUSE THEY CAN NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM WHEN THE CAR IS THERE THE ONLY THING THEY SAY THEY CAN DO IS A ZERO POINT RESET ON OCS SYSTEM. THAT HAS NOT STOPPED THIS ISSUE FROM REOCCURRING. WE HAVE PHONED BERGSTROM OF OSHKOSH 5 DAYS THIS WEEK, THEY DO NOT RETURN OUR CALL. THE LAST DIAGNOSIS STATES ELECTRICAL, HOWEVER, TONY THE SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD US THE LAST TIME WE WERE THEIR THAT THEY DON'T WANT TO THROW MONEY AT THE CAR IT COULD BE A SENSOR, ELECTRICAL, THE AIR BAG SYSTEM OR THE SEAT. BECAUSE THEY CANNOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM WHEN WE ARE THERE THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO FIX, SO CHOOSE TO DO NOTHING. THE RECALL ON THE CAR WAS DONE 5/26/16. HOWEVER WE CONTINUE TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM. THE SERVICE ADVISOR HAS REPEATEDLY SAID IT IS BECAUSE THE PASSENGER IS NOT SITTING ON THE SEAT CORRECTLY, HOWEVER THE LAST TIME IT OCCURRED THE PASSENGER WAS SITTING IN THE SAME POSITION WHEN THE AIR BAG WAS OFF AS SHE WAS WHEN THE IGNITION WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED CORRECTING THE PROBLEM. OUR WARRANTY WILL RUN OUT SOON. WE PHONED NISSAN AND THEY WILL ONLY GO BY WHAT THERE AUTO TECH AT BERGSTROM TELLS THEM, SO NO HELP THERE EITHER. I HAVE COPIES OF INVOICES FROM WHEN THE CAR WAS TAKEN IN FOR THIS PROBLEM.

THERE WAS RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE NHTSA RECALL 16V-244. IT WAS ABOUT THE OCS. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CREST NISSAN OF FRISCO 6600 STATE HWY 121, FRISCO, TX 75034 ON 14 JUNE 2016. ACCORDING TO THE INVOICE GIVEN TO ME BY THE DEALER THE OCS UNIT WAS REPROGRAMMED. ON 9 AUG 16 I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE SAME DEALER BECAUSE THE SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT REMAINS ON CONTINUOUSLY. BUT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE AGENT AT CREST NISSAN OF FRISCO TOLD ME THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT, THIS LIGHT IS SUPPOSED TO STAY ON UNLESS THE PASSENGER SEAT IS OCCUPIED BY AN ADULT . OWNER'S MANUAL ON PAGE 1-57 CLEARLY MENTIONS THAT " IF THE SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT REMAINS ON AFTER APPROXIMATELY 7 SECONDS, UNDER THIS CONDITION, THE FRONT AIR BAG, SIDE AIR BAG AND CURTAIN AIR BAG OR PRETENSIONER SYSTEMS MAY NOT OPERATE PROPERLY". THE DEALER HAS NOT ONLY FAILED TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM BUT ALSO LIED TO ME ABOUT THIS TECHNICAL AND A POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS PROBLEM. IT COULD MEAN THAT THE FRONT AIR BAG, SIDE AIR BAG, CURTAIN AIR BAG AND/OR PRETENSIONER SYSTEMS WILL NOT OPERATE IN AN ACCIDENT.

SINCE I HAVE HAD MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA IT HAS FACED SEVERAL MAJOR ISSUES SUCH HAS TWO TRANSMISSIONS REPLACEMENTS, NOW THE AC COMPRESSOR, THEN THE CAR DISPLAY SCREEN TURNED COMPLETELY PINK, AND OTHER NUMEROUS ISSUES THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN DOCUMENTED IN YOUR SYSTEM. PLEASE REFER BACK TO MY PREVIOUS COMPLAINTS THAT I HAVE SUBMITTED, MY SERVICE RECORDS FOR THE DEALERSHIP, AND SO FORTH FOR DOCUMENTATION PURPOSES. I TRULY BELIEVE THAT A CAR WITH ONLY 7 MILES ON IT WHEN PURCHASED SHOULD NOT HAVE ANY OF THESES ISSUES UNLESS IT WAS MANUFACTURED POORLY. I AM SO FED UP WITH DEALING WITH THE DEALERSHIP AND RUN AROUNDS FROM THE CORPORATION THAT I MAY HAVE TO TAKE LEGAL ACTION IF THIS ISSUE IS NOT RESOLVED IN A TIMELY MANNER.

I BROUGHT MY CAR TO ROYAL PALM NISSAN FOR A RECALL ON THE HOOD LATCH AND TOLD THEM TO CHECK THE OCS LIGHT THAT WENT ON INTERMITTENTLY EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS A PASSENGER SEATED. THIS WAS BEFORE THE RECALL NOTICE. I RECEIVED THE OCS RECALL AND WENT TO CORAL 'SPRINGS NISSAN. I RETURNED A WEEK LATER BECAUSE THE LIGHT REMAINED ON FOR 17 MINUTES A FEW DAYS LATER WHILE DRIVING WITH AN ADULT PASSENGER. I WAS TOLD IT COULD NOT BE CHECKED BECAUSE THE LIGHT WAS NOT ON THEN. IF THE LIGHT GOES ON INTERMITTENTLY, THEN MY PASSENGER IS NOT SAFE IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT AS THE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY. WHAT CAN BE DONE?

I AM CONTACTING YOU OVER REPEATED ISSUES WITH MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA SL. THIS IS MY SECOND COMPLAINT FILED TO NHTSA FOR THIS VEHICLE'S AIRBAG. AS YOU ARE AWARE, A RECALL WAS ISSUED AND HAS BEEN PERFORMED ON MY VEHICLE. MY ISSUE IS THAT THE PASSENGER SEAT WON'T ARM THE AIRBAG IF MY WIFE SITS IN THE SEAT. I HAVE MULTIPLE VIDEOS OF THIS ISSUE. MY MOST RECENT VISIT TO MY NISSAN DEALER RESULTED IN THEM STATING THEY COULDN'T FIX ANYTHING AS THEY COULDN'T PULL AN ERROR CODE. THE VERY NEXT DAY, THE ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN WITH MY WIFE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND AGAIN I RECORDED IT. I OPENED A COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN CORPORATE. AFTER A FRUSTRATING PHONE CALL THIS EVENING, AND A LOT OF AMBITIOUS DOUBLE TALK ON NISSAN'S PART, THE NISSAN REPRESENTATIVE SAID THAT THE ISSUE WAS THAT MY WIFE WAS TOO LITE. MY WIFE WEIGHS BETWEEN 103 AND 108 POUNDS AS SHE FLUCTUATES A BIT. SHE STANDS 5 FOOT 3 INCHES TALL. THE NISSAN REPRESENTATIVE, DELISA SAID THAT NISSAN DOESN'T RECOMMEND ANYONE UNDER 4 FEET 9 INCHES OR LESS THAN 120 LBS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS WAS NEVER TOLD TO ME TWO YEARS AGO WHEN I WAS LOOKING AT PURCHASING THE CAR, OR THROUGH ANY OF THE 6-8 SERVICE TICKETS I HAVE OPENED REGARDING THIS ISSUE WITH MULTIPLE DIFFERENT FIXES ATTEMPTED. ( I CAN GET THE EXACT NUMBER AS SOON AS MY DEALER PROVIDES THE REQUESTED INFORMATION.) I WOULD HAVE NEVER BOUGHT THE CAR KNOWING MY WIFE COULDN'T RIDE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. I ASKED FOR THIS IN WRITING FROM THE NISSAN REPRESENTATIVE BUT SHE SAID SHE COULD NOT PROVIDE THAT. SHE SAID IT WAS ONLY FOR THEIR INTERNAL RECORDS. I PRESSED HER ON THE FACT THAT THEY WERE SAYING MY WIFE COULDN'T SIT IN THE FRONT SEAT. HER REPLY WAS THAT SHE DIDN'T SAY THAT, ONLY THAT NISSAN DOESN'T RECOMMEND SOMEONE LESS THAN 120 POUNDS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. IS IT POSSIBLE TO BE CONTACTED BY THE NHTSA TO CLARIFY WHAT NISSAN IS SAYING AND IF IT IS ACCURATE?

"PASSENGER AIR BAGS OFF" LIGHT IS "ON" WHILE DRIVING, AT ANY SPEED, WITH AN ADULT IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THE PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS LESS THAT A WEEK OLD. IT CONTINUES TO OCCUR ABOUT ONCE A MONTH. I HAVE HAD THE CAR AT THE DEALER MANY TIMES. THE PROBLEM CANNOT BE DUPLICATED AT THE DEALER, THEREFORE NO REPAIRS HAVE BEEN MADE. ON JUNE 15, 2016 THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER IN RESPONSE TO RECALL #16V244000. NO HELP! THE PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED TWICE SINCE THEN. THE PROBLEM: ALWAYS OCCURS DURING AN ENGINE START. NEVER WHILE DRIVING. IT SEEMS TO BE PART OF THE INITIALIZATION PROCESS. MAY CORRECT ITSELF AT ANY TIME. IT MAY LAST FOR A HALF A MILE OR 50 MILES. CANNOT BE CORRECTED BY THE PASSENGER STANDING OR BOUNCING CAN ALWAYS BE CORRECTED BY PULLING OFF THE ROAD AND STOPPING THEN RESTARTING THE ENGINE. I HAVE A LOTS OF CELL PHONE PHOTOS SHOWING VEHICLE SPEED, "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" INDICATION AND AN ADULT PASSENGER IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THESE PHOTOS ARE DATED.

WHEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER, THEY SAID THE PLUG UNDER THE DRIVERS SEAT WAS LOOSE. THEY "FIXED IT". THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED 3 TIMES SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW AND IS CURRENTLY DOING IT AGAIN, BUT IT IS NOW OUT OF WARRANTY BECAUSE OF MILEAGE AND THEY ARE GOING TO CHARGE ME TO FIX A PROBLEM THAT SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN, YET HAS REOCCURRED REGULARLY SINCE NEW. TWO: WHEN DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL AND NEAR A COMPLETE STOP, THE PEDAL BECOMES "SOFT" FOR ABOUT A HALF SECOND, THE CAR STOPS DECELERATING FOR THAT HALF SECOND THEN CONTINUES TO STOP NORMALLY, THEREAFTER. EACH TIME I MENTION THIS AT A SERVICE INTERVAL AT THE DEALER, THEY SAY THEY WILL LOOK INTO IT. NOTHING IS NOTED ON MY INVOICE AND NOTHING IS MENTIONED WHEN THE CAR IS PICKED UP. IT IS UNSETTLING AND IT CAUSES THE CAR TO STOP SEVERAL FEET FURTHER THAN IF THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN.

NISSAN WILL NOT PUT THIS UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V681000 AS IT DOES NOT FIT THEIR CRITERIA. I BELIEVE ANY PASSENGER SITTING IN THAT SEAT IS NOT SAFE. VEHICLE IS RUNNING PASSENGER COMES IN AND SITS IN SEAT, PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON. PASSENGER IS 160#. IF I TURN VEHICLE OFF AND RESTART THE AIRBAG LIGHT USUALLY DOES STAY OFF. BUT NOT SURE OF THE SAFETY AT THAT POINT - IS AIRBAG REALLY ON? THIS IS CONTINUAL SINCE BUYING THE VEHICLE IN 2013, FIX IN SPRING OF 2015 DID NOT FIX OCS FOR MY VEHICLE.

THE VEHICLE HAS HAD RECURRING PROBLEMS WITH THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT COMING ON WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND WITH AN OCCUPANT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON BOTH CITY STREETS AND INTERSTATE HIGHWAYS. THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT IN DUE TO A RECALL ON THE RESTRAINT SYSTEM ON MAY 9, 2014. PREVIOUS TO THIS THERE WERE NO OBSERVABLE PROBLEMS. ON JUNE 12, 2014 THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT INTO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE I BEGAN TO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE AIR BAG LIGHT COMING ON WHEN A PASSENGER WAS IN THE FRONT SEAT WHILE DRIVING. NISSAN DETECTED A PROBLEM AND REPLACED THE AIRBAG DETECTION SENSOR. THE PROBLEM SOON BECAME EVIDENT AGAIN (MANY TIMES I DRIVE THE VEHICLE WHILE ALONE, SO PROBLEM ISN'T ALWAYS EVIDENT.) ON JAN 30, 2015 I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE INTO NISSAN DEALERSHIP WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. AGAIN, THEY DETECTED CODES REGARDING THE PASSENGER OCCUPANT SENSORS AND THEY SAID THEY REPLACED THE SENSOR. FIVE DAYS LATER THE PROBLEM SHOWED UP WHILE WE WERE ON A LENGTHY TRIP. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN AGAIN ON APRIL 9. THEY STATED THAT NO CODES SHOWED UP AND SUGGESTED IT PROBABLY WOULD BE OK. HOWEVER ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE PROBLEM SHOWED UP AGAIN, I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, EACH TIME THEY STATED THAT THEY DID A COMPUTER SCAN AND NO CODES SHOWED UP. I HAD TAKEN VIDEOS ON 3 OCCASIONS SHOWING THE VEHICLE IN MOTION AND SHOWING A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT AND SHOWING THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON INDICATING THE AIRBAG WAS NOT IN OPERATION. I OFFERED , EVEN ASKED IF THEY WOULD WATCH BUT THEY DECLINED. THEY SAID THAT EVERYTHING WAS FUNCTIONAL. THEY FURTHER TOLD ME THAT THE PRIMARY MEANS OF RESTRAINT WAS THE SEATBELT. I ASKED IF THEY WOULD CHECK TO SEE IF THE SENSOR WAS POSITIONED PROPERLY, HOWEVER THEY REFUSED, SAYING THAT NISSAN WOULD NOT AUTHORIZE ANY OTHER WORK TO BE DONE UNLESS THE COMPUTER SHOWED A PROBLEM.

SEAT WITH EVERY TRIP. I HAVE ONLY TAKEN THE CAR ONCE TO THE DEALER FOR THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE THE FIRST TIME I DID NOT THINK ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE SECOND TIME I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND AFTER CHECKING IT OUT, THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS NOTING THEY COULD OR WOULD DO BECAUSE THEY HAD NO FAILURE AND THAT NISSAN WILL NOT LET THEM REPLACE ANY PARTS UNLESS THERE IS A FAILURE AS NISSAN WILL NOT PAY FOR THE ITEM. OPEN REF.# 19611123 WITH NISSAN AND WAS TOLD ABOUT THE SAME THIN, EXCEPT NISSAN SAID THAT IT WAS THE DEALER CALL BUT THEY WOULD NOT PAY FOR NO FAILURE PART REPLACEMENT.

NO ONE I TALK TO AT THE DEALER OR ON THE PHONE TO NISSAN WOULD OR COULD DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE INTERNET HAS MANY WRITE UP ABOUT THIS PROBLEM THAT NO ONE WILL DO ANYTHING ABOUT.

DURING OUR VACATION WHILE DRIVING IN ILLINOIS WE NOTICED WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY GOING AT A SPEED OF 60 TO 65 MPH WHILE AN ADULT OCCUPYING THE PASSENGER SEAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND SAID PASSENGER AIR BAG TURNED OFF. I PULLED OUT THE OWNERS MANUAL AND READ THAT IT COULD BE CAUSED BY AN ARTICLE PERHAPS TOUCHING THE SEAT IF RECLINED TOO FAR BACK. THIS WAS NOT THE CASE. THERE WAS NOTHING TOUCHING THE SEAT. I WAS SITTING PERFECTLY STILL SO THE SENSOR SHOULD HAVE DETECTED A PASSENGER IN THE SEAT. I HAD BEEN SITING IN THE SEAT FOR HOURS WITH THE NORMAL MOVEMENT. WE PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF THEN RESTARTED AND THE LIGHT STAYED OFF. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL MORE TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON OUR VACATION AND IS A SCARY THOUGHT TO HAVE THIS OCCUR. ONCE HOME, I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP FOR AN APPOINTMENT AND IN THE MEANTIME THE SAME THING OCCURRED ON A SHORT IN TOWN TRIP TWICE.MY APPOINTMENT IS THIS WEEK SO I AM CURIOUS WHAT THEY WILL FIND.

THE FIRST TIME THEY TOLD ME THEY REPROGRAMMED IT. THE SECOND, THEY REPLACED A SENSOR. THE THIRD, THEY SAID MY WIFE DIDN'T WEIGH ENOUGH AND TO SIT VERY STILL OR BOUNCE AROUND IN THE SEAT SO THAT THE PASSENGER IS DETECTED. THE FOURTH TIME, THEY REPLACED TWO SENSORS. STILL THE ISSUE PERSISTS. TO TRY AND REMEDY, I HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND KEEP TURNING THE CAR OFF AND ON UNTIL IT DETECTS MY PASSENGER AND ENABLES THE AIRBAG.

I AM WRITING REGARDING PROBLEMS WITH THE NISSAN AIR BAG SAFETY SYSTEM IN MY 2014 ALTIMA. I PURCHASED A 2014 ALTIMA IN AUGUST AND HAVE HAD A RECURRING INTERMITTENT PROBLEM OF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT COMING ON AND REMAINING ON WHEN I HAVE AN ADULT PASSENGER IN THE VEHICLE. MY WIFE WEIGHS 120 POUNDS YET IT IS NOT INFREQUENT FOR THE LIGHT TO GO ON WHEN WE START THE CAR AND THEN REMAIN ON FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME, USUALLY BETWEEN FIFTEEN AND THIRTY MINUTES. IT MAY ALSO COME ON AND STAY ON IF SHE GETS IN THE CAR AFTER I HAVE STARTED IT. SINCE LOCAL TRIPS ARE OFTEN LESS THAN THIRTY MINUTES, THERE ARE TIMES WE COMPLETE A SHORT TRIP WITHOUT THE LIGHT GOING OUT. THE LIGHT WILL ALSO COME ON FOR NO APPARENT REASON WHILE WE ARE DRIVING. DURING ONE OF THESE EPISODES THE LIGHT CAME ON WHILE WE WERE DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE, REMAINED ON FOR JUST OVER AN HOUR, AND THEN WENT OFF. WE HAVE HAD THE CAR EVALUATED BY NISSAN TWICE AND ARE REPEATEDLY TOLD NOTHING IS WRONG. I ALSO WROTE AND SPOKE WITH NISSAN CORPORATE AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. THERE IS NOTHING UNDER THE SEAT. THERE ARE NO CHILDREN IN THE CAR AND MY WIFE IS NOT TURNING AROUND IN THE SEAT.

THIS ISSUE IS REGARDING THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT THAT TURNS ON EVEN WHEN THERE IS AN ADULT PASSENGER OCCUPYING THE SEAT. THE WEIGHT OF THE ADULT PASSENGER (150LBS - 180LBS) IS MUCH HIGHER THAN THE THRESHOLD FOR ACTIVATING THE AIR BAGS. HAVE TAKEN TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS ISSUE DURING MY 3 SERVICE VISITS, BUT EVERY TIME I GET A RESPONSE THAT THERE ARE NO ISSUES WITH THE SENSORS AND THERE ARE NO PENDING RECALLS. IT TOOK ME A LOT OF EFFORT TO MAKE THEM UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M SAYING AND THE DEALERSHIP WAS OF NO HELP. THEY MADE ME BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A NON-ISSUE AND I SHOULD IGNORE THE AIR BAG LIGHT. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE AND I'VE NOW A VIDEO/PHOTO EVIDENCE WITH DIFFERENT ADULTS IN THE PASSENGER SEATS. FURTHER, THIS IS VERY ERRATIC. AT ONE INSTANCE, I'VE HAD MY WIFE SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WHILE THE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS OFF AND SUDDENLY TURNED ON WHEN WE WERE CRUISING AT 65MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, THE LIGHT SUDDENLY TURNED ON. IT'S CAUSED A BRIEF PANIC AND WE HAD TO STOP, RE-START THE ENGINE AND THEN IT WORKED FINE. WE'RE VERY SCARED TO RIDE A PASSENGER AND THE DEALERSHIP IS OF NO HELP. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND MANY OTHER USERS HAVING SIMILAR CONCERNS WITH NO RESOLUTION. THIS IS A VERY VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND WOULD REQUEST THE ERRATIC AND FAULTY AIR BAG PROBLEM BE RESOLVED BEFORE WE WAIT TO HEAR ABOUT SOME CASUALTY BECAUSE OF FAULTY AIRBAGS FROM NISSAN. *TR

WE WERE ONE OF THE 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA'S THAT WAS EXPERIENCING THE PASSENGER AIR BAG ISSUE: EVEN THOUGH A FULL-SIZED ADULT WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT, THE "AIR-BAG OFF" WOULD BE ILLUMINATED. IT WAS BROUGHT IN UNDER THE RECALL IN ROUGHLY OCTOBER OF 2014. AFTER GETTING THE CAR BACK, WE IMMEDIATELY NOTICED THAT THE LIGHT WAS STILL COMING ON WHEN A PASSENGER WAS PRESENT. WE WERE TOLD THAT IT COULD BE DUE TO HUMIDITY, AS WE LIVE IN FLORIDA. BUT EVEN DURING THE WINTER MONTHS IT STILL READ THAT THE AIR BAG WAS OFF. THIS IS CONCERNING IF IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NISSAN IS NOT PROPERLY FIXING THE ISSUE.

THEY TOLD ME THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM BY REPLACING THE SENSOR AND CONTROL UNIT AND PERFORMED ZERO POINT RESET. THE PROBLEM CAME BACK AGAIN ON 2/3/15 AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG AND THAT IF IT HAPPENS JUST PULL OVER AND TURN OFF THE CAR UNTIL THE LIGHTS TURN OFF AND DOES NOT COME BACK ON.

THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM. THE INFORMATION PROVIDED ABOVE IS APPROXIMATE AS I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS AN ISSUE UNTIL A RECALL FROM MY NISSAN DEALER ON APRIL 22' 2014. SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD IT BACK TO THE DEALER TWO MORE TIMES FOR THE SAME INCIDENT ONLY TO BE TOLD IT COULD NOT BE FIXED, BUT THEY GAVE ME A PROCEDURE TO GET AROUND THE ISSUE. THE ISSUE INVOLVES THE AIR BAG LIGHT ON THE PASSENGERS SIDE STAYING LIT EVEN WHEN THERE IS AN ADULT IN THE SEAT. THE LIGHT ON MEANS THE PASSENGERS AIR BAG IS DISABLED. I AM TOLD TO CHECK LIGHT WHILE THE CAR IN ON AND IN PARK AND IF ON, HAVE THE PASSENGER STAY PERFECTLY STILL FOR ABOUT EIGHT SECONDS, UNTIL THE LIGHT GOES OUT. SOMETIMES THIS WORKS, SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T. OCCASIONALLY I HAVE TO SHUT OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTART IN ORDER FOR THIS TO WORK. MOST TIMES, I FORGET TO CHECK THE LIGHT ONLY TO NOTICE IT ON WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. I WORRY ABOUT NOT NOTICING AND HAVING A FRONT END ACCIDENT. SURELY IN THIS DAY AND AGE NISSAN ENGINEERS CAN FIND A FIX. *TR

THE FIRST INCIDENCE WAS IN OCTOBER, 2014; MY WIFE WAS SEATED IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION, WHEN THE PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF LIGHT LIT UP INDICATING THE AIR BAG SYSTEM FOR FRONT PASSENGER WAS TURNED OFF. SINCE SHE WAS SEATED NORMALLY WITH FULL WEIGHT ON THE SEAT..WE WERE LED TO BELIEVE THE AIR BAG SYSTEM WAS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE SYSTEM FUNCTIONING IS TO PULL OVER AND RESTART THE CAR. THE CAR WAS IMMEDIATELY TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOLLOWING THAT INCIDENCE. THE SERVICE ADVISOR, AT THAT TIME, CONFIRMED THAT MY CAR WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALLED AIR BAGS, HOWEVER, THEY REPROGRAMMED THE COMPUTER AND TOLD ME TO WATCH FOR ANY OTHER INSTANCES. THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT WAS ON 2/8/15, WITH THE SAME CONDITIONS. I QUICKLY SCHEDULED A SERVICE APPT FOR 2/12/15 & REFUSED TO LET ANYONE IN THE FRONT SEAT. WHILE AT THE DEALERSHIP ON 2/12/15, THE NISSAN SERVICE ADVISOR DISCUSSED WITH ME A TSB, WHICH SAID THAT "OCCUPANTS WHO ARE PROPERLY SEATED AND CORRECTLY USING THE SEAT BELT, SHOULD NOT CAUSE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG TO BE AUTOMATICALLY TURNED OFF." HE THEN HAD THE CARE INSPECTED BY A SERVICE TECH. FOLLOWING THE INSPECTION, THE SERVICE ADVISOR CAME TO ME AND NOTED THAT THE SYSTEM WAS NOT SHOWING ANY TROUBLE CODES. THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO AND TO LET THEM KNOW IF I HAD ANYMORE TROUBLE. AT THIS POINT I REFUSED TO TAKE THE CAR OFF THEIR LOT UNTIL IT WAS FIXED - I DID NOT FEEL THAT MY FAMILY SHOULD BE SUBJECTED TO A POSSIBLE FAILURE OF THE AIR BAG SYSTEM, INJURY, OR DEATH. IT APPEARED TO ME THAT THOSE OUTCOMES WERE 100% AVOIDABLE. AFTER A FEW CONVERSATIONS INCL THE SERVICE MANAGER, I WAS PROVIDED WITH A DEALER LOANER VEHICLE AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD RESEARCH THE SITUATION. I HAVE ELEVATED THIS TO NISSAN'S CONSUMER AFFAIR SPECIALIST VIA THE 1 800 NISSAN 1, CALL CENTER. I HOPE A SOLUTION IS FOUND QUICKLY. *TR

AT THAT TIME I NOTICED THAT THE WARNING LIGHT FOR NO PASSENGER IN THE PASSENGER SEAT CAME ON. THE PROBLEM WAS THAT MY WIFE WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT AND HAD BEEN FOR APPROXIMATELY 8 MILES AT THE TIME THE LIGHT CAME ON. I PULLED OVER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, SHUT THE IGNITION OFF AND RESTARTED THE CAR. AFTER DOING THIS, THE WARNING LIGHT WENT OFF AND WE PROCEEDED HOME WITHOUT INCIDENT. MY CONCERN IS THAT THE OCS WAS REPROGRAMMED WHEN I HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED ON 7/15/2014 AND UNTIL THIS TIME, I HAD EXPERIENCED NO OTHER PROBLEMS SINCE IT WAS REPROGRAMMED. IT APPEARS THAT THE OCS REPROGRAMMING IS NOT CORRECTING THE ISSUE. I TRIED TO CONTACT NISSAN, HOWEVER, IT WAS AFTER HOURS AND I WILL HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL MONDAY TO REPORT THE ISSUE TO THEM. *TR

RECENTLY AFTER GETTING THE S/W UPDATED FOR THE RECALL TO FIX THE PASSENGER AIR BAG ISSUE, I STARTED NOTICING THAT THE AIR BAG INDICATOR FOR BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER ARE RED FOR LONGER TIME THAN OTHER DASH LIGHTS DURING THE START OF THE ENGINE. USUALLY, AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE , ALL THE DASH LIGHT WOULD COME AND WITHIN COUPLE OF SECONDS, LIGHTS/INDICATORS IN THE DASH WOULD GO FROM RED TO OFF INDICATING THAT EVERYTHING IS NORMAL. BUT OFF LATE , I NOTICED THAT ONLY THE AIR BAG INDICATOR IS GOING OFF BY AT LEAST 3+ SECONDS, WHICH IN TURN IN SYNC WITH THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. I'M KIND OF WORRIED THAT THE AIR BAG SAFETY SYSTEM IS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. PLEASE ADVISE ANY FURTHER ACTION TO GET PROPER ATTENTION FROM THE DEALER. THANKS *TR

ON THE WAY TO GET A CUP OF COFFEE (LESS THAN ONE MILE FROM MY HOME) A CAR STARTED COMING INTO MY LANE. I SWERVED SLIGHTLY TO AVOID A COLLISION AND MY CAR WENT INTO THE DITCH AND HIT A TELEPHONE POLE. OVER $22,000 IN DAMAGE. RADIATOR BENT INTO AN "L" SHAPE. SIDE FRAMES AND ENGINE WENT INTO THE FIREWALL, WHICH TOTALED THE CAR COMPLETELY. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH NISSAN CORP. AIR BAG SAFETY ENGINEER, DEALERSHIP OWNER, GENERAL MANAGER, SALES MANAGER AND THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS $22,000 DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END AND NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. OFFICER SAID DRIVER AIRBAG AND SIDE CURTAIN AND IN SEAT AIRBAGS SHOULD HAVE ALSO DEPLOYED. THEY DIDN'T AND I WAS ALMOST KILLED. THE CAR WAS ONLY 2 MONTHS OLD, NO MODIFICATIONS, AND VERY LOW MILES. KIRO7 TV IN SEATTLE EVEN DID TWO STORIES ON THE CRASH AND AIRBAGS NOT WORKING AND THAT NISSAN HAD ONLY RECALLED PASSENGER AIRBAGS, NOT DRIVER SIDE AIRBAGS. ..UPDATED 07/16/14 *BF

PROBLEM IS, MY GIRLFRIEND WEIGHT 110LB. LOT OF TIME WHEN SHE SITS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, THE AIRBAG INDICATOR TELLS US THE AIRBAG IS OFF. THIS PROBLEMS ONLY HAPPENED WHEN I PICKED UP MY CAR ON THE STREET NEXT TO CURBS. DESIGN OF ROADS IS, THE CENTER IS HIGHER THAN THE SIDES. BECAUSE OF THAT, WHEN I PARK ON THE RIGHT OF THE STREETS NEXT TO THE CURBS, THE LEFT SIDE OF THE CAR IS HIGHER THAN THE RIGHT SIDE. SO WHEN MY GIRLFRIEND SITS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, HER WEIGHT DOESNT GOES TO THE CENTER OF THE SEAT. BUT IF THE CAR IS ON SURFACE LEVEL SUCH AS IN A GARAGE, AND SHE GET IN THE CAR, WE HAVE NO AIRBAG ISSUE. *TR
