2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER Air Bags Problems

Brought our 2013 Nissan Pathfinder to Naples Nissan because of a flashing airbag warning light and a Warning light that passenger airbag was not working . Dealer fixed other recalls and charged us $179 to tell us we needed 2 new OCS sensors for $1050. We provided copy of OCS sensor recall for 2013 pathfinder (PC216 13V -069. NYB13-035a) which states dealer is responsible to remove OCS sensors and check the lot codes for campaign eligibility . Dealer has ignored the request and simply repeated that the all outstanding recalls have been taken care of and we would need to pay $1050 to repair this important safety problem . Please help us ?

The front passenger air bag turned off when an adult or teen sits in the seat. The air bag has remained turned off. The warning light also started to flash periodically and now continuously flashes.

Hi, in 2018, Nissan replaced the passenger occupancy module as part of a recall. That module has now gone bad again (~5 years), and Nissan is charging its customers to replace. Maybe we are unlucky, but wondering if the repair with a faulty part is a pattern that is introducing risk and unnecessary cost to customers. Hoping the NHTSA can review data to determine whether this is a pattern or one-off. Thank you.

While pushing the auto button to slid the passenger front seat to vacuum the floor carpet the airbag sensor broke off. This made the airbag system to be non operational on the front passerenger seat putting any passenger in danger with no airbags. Poor design of such an important safety system that just sliding the seat would break such an important part!

The air bag light indicating that the passenger air bag is disabled does not go off when someone sits in the passenger seat. This matches NHTSA Campaign Number 15V681000 from October 20, 2015 with the description Air Bag may not Detect Passenger in Seat. However, Nissan says that my VIN is not part of the recall. This makes no sense to me since my vehicle has this issue. I do not know exactly when this started as I don't often carry passengers. The date I put in was around the last time I took this vehicle in for what I believe was to address a recall issue. I'm also concerned that my vehicle could have the issue from April 26, 2016, NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V244000, Passenger Air Bag may not Deploy due to OCS Error.

Passenger side airbag does not show as engage due to a faulty (OCS) sensor per inspection by Nissan dealership names #1 Cochran. This is a known problem covered under Nissan's recall PC216. This recall was performed on the vehicle in 2017. The sensor is faulty again. The fix that Nissan proposed is not a long term correction of the problem. Obviously, if the vehicle is involved in an accident with my wife in the passenger seat the airbag would not work due to a faulty sensor that registers no one being present in the passenger seat.

Passenger airbag sensor indicates seat is empty even though someone is sitting in it. Have not had it checked yet. Going this week.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Pathfinder. The contact stated while starting the vehicle, the front passenger’s side air bag and the "solid air bag #2" warning lights were illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed with needing the air bag sensor to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired but was pending repairs. Upon investigation, the contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 13V069000 (Air Bags) however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 102,000. Consumer has not stated when the incident occured.*JB

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Pathfinder. The contact stated that the air bag warning light was illuminated. He also stated that the OCS sensor failed to recognize an occupant seated in the passenger’s side seat, which would cause the air bag to become inoperable. The dealer was notified of the failure and informed him that there were no recalls on the vehicle. Upon investigation, the contact discovered NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V681000 (Air Bags) which he linked to the failure. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was 149,989

passenger side airbag light is always on (passenger or not) indicating that the passenger side airbag is off. also, when there is no passenger in the seat, the red airbag light flashes. however, when there is a passenger in the seat, the red airbag light is not on.

I recently purchased a 2013 Pathfinder with 71,000 miles. My 2013 Pathfinder has a faulty OCS. The RED AIRBAG light is illuminated on the dashboard that will not go off. It also has the PASSENGER AIRBAG light illuminated whether a person is sitting in the passenger seat or not. This light does not go off when an adult is sitting in the seat. There is a recall on 2013 Pathfinders for this problem but my VIN is not showing a recall for this problem even though it has the same issue.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LUPIENT NISSAN OF BROOKLYN PARK (7910 LAKELAND AVE N, BROOKLYN PARK, MN 55445, (763) 244-2650) BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 215,671.

THE LIGHT INDICATING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WAS DISABLED CAME ON ONE DAY AND NEVER WENT OFF, INDICATING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WAS NEVER ENABLED, EVEN IF AN ADULT WAS SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. FIRST TIME TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THIS ISSUE, THEY "CLEARED THE CODES" AND TOLD ME TO COME BACK IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN. IT HAPPENED AGAIN IMMEDIATELY UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE TO DEPART FROM THE DEALERSHIP. SECOND VISIT TO THE DEALERSHIP HAD ME REPLACE THE AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE/DIAGNOSIS UNIT (TO THE TUNE OF OVER $1,100 TOTAL PARTS/LABOR/TAX) BECAUSE THE LIGHT WOULD NOT GO OFF EVEN WHEN RESET, AND IT WAS NOT "THROWING ANY CODES." I WAS TOLD SOMETHING ELSE COULD STILL BE WRONG, BUT WITH THIS UNIT REPLACED, IT WOULD PROVIDE THE "CODES" FOR WHATEVER ELSE MAY REQUIRE REPAIR. HOWEVER, ONCE THIS PART WAS REPLACED, THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. DEALERSHIP THEN SAID THE "NEXT STEP" IS TO REPLACE 2 AIRBAG SENSORS AND ANOTHER RELATED UNIT (ANOTHER ~$600). IF THE LIGHT IS STILL ON AFTER THAT, THEY JUST KEEP GOING DOWN THE LIST OF AIRBAG SYSTEM PARTS TO REPLACE UNTIL THEY FINALLY FIX THE ISSUE. BASICALLY, NO ONE KNOWS WHAT'S REALLY WRONG, SO WE'LL JUST KEEP REPLACING PARTS THAT PROBABLY DON'T ACTUALLY NEED TO BE REPLACED UNTIL WE FINALLY REACH THE ONE THAT DOES. APPARENTLY, THIS IS HOW NISSAN REPAIRS THEIR AIRBAG SYSTEMS (WHICH A QUICK ONLINE SEARCH INDICATES THEY HAVE PLENTY OF ISSUES WITH). THE AIRBAG DIAGNOSIS UNIT CLEARLY DOESN'T ACTUALLY "DIAGNOSE" ANYTHING. MEANWHILE, I AM AT THEIR MERCY BECAUSE AN AIRBAG ISSUE IS CAUSE FOR STATE INSPECTION FAILURE AND IS OBVIOUSLY A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN.

THROUGH INTERNET SEARCH SOME 2013-2017 NISSAN PATHFINDERS PASSENGER AIRBAGS HAVE A RECALL ISSUED. AFTER CONTACTING NISSAN MOTOR CORP. IT WAS EXPLAINED RECALLS ARE VIN SPECIFIC. I REQUESTED AN EXPLANATION OF THE PROCESS NISSAN USES TO DETERMINE WHAT VIN APPLY, WHAT DEPARTMENT WOULD BE ABLE TO EXPLAIN, WHY WOULD THE DEALER NEED TO ANSWER THE WHY AND HOW'S NISSAN DETERMINES WHAT VIN APPLY. THE NISSAN REP IN SHORT EXPLAINED, HE DIDN'T HAVE ANY ANSWERS. THE DEALER THAT SOLD ME THE VEHICLE HAS EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE. THIS MATTER SHOULD IN NO WAY REFLECT ON THE DEALER. NISSAN AS A THREE STEP REPAIR PLAN FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG IF THE VIN WASN'T LISTED ON THE RECALL. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THE REPAIR CAN COST UP TO $2500.00-$3000.00. IT APPEARS THE AIRBAG ISSUE MUST HAVE BEEN MISSED ON MY VIN. BASED ON NISSAN PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG REPAIR BULLETIN IT CAN TAKE UP TO 3 TRIPS WITH THE COST INCREASING EACH TIME. IN MY OPINION, IF SOME 2013-2017 PATHFINDER PASSENGER AIRBAGS ARE RECALLED THERE MUST BE AN ISSUE. WITH THAT SAID, ANYONE WHO'S VIN WASN'T ORIGINALLY LISTED SHOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG REPAIRED UNDER THE RECALL.

THE AIRBAG SYSTEM IS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THE SRS LIGHT IS FLASHING ON THE DASH. THE AIR BAG LIGHT WILL NOT DETECT A PASSENGER WEIGHING OVER 150 LBS. THE PROBLEM WAS ADDRESSED WITH A RECALL. IN MAY OF 2018, THE PROBLEM WAS TEMPORARILY FIXED BY REPLACING THE ACU DIAG UNIT, THE AIR BAG PRESS DETECTION MODULE ASSEMBLY, THE OCCUPANT SENSOR, AND THE AIR BAG PRESSURE DETECTION SENSOR. THE PROBLEM IS OCCURRING AGAIN JUST OVER A YEAR LATER. THIS PROBLEMS OCCURS IN ALL DRIVING CONDITIONS AT ALL TIMES. THE FLASHING LIGHT SUPPRESSES THE AIR BAG SYSTEM MEANING AN AIR BAG WILL NOT WORK AS IT SHOULD DURING AN ACCIDENT. THIS LEAVES MY FAMILY AND I AT RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH IF AN ACCIDENT WAS TO OCCUR. THE REOCCURRENCE OF THE PROBLEM TOOK PLACE ON AUGUST 13, 2009. THE ORIGINAL PROBLEM WAS ADDRESSED ON MAY, 9, 2018.

I BOUGHT A BRAND NEW 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER IN MARCH OF 2013. WITHIN 6 MONTHS I NOTICED THERE WAS JERKING WITH THE TRANSMISSION. I TOOK IT BACK TO PRESTON NISSAN IN MARYLAND AND WAS TOLD THEY HAD RECEIVED A BULLETIN AND THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMMED. THEY REPROGRAMMED THE TRANSMISSION AND IT HELPED A LITTLE BUT A FEW MONTHS LATER IT WAS DOING THE SAME THING. I TOOK IT BACK TO PRESTON NISSAN. THERE I WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND THAT THEY WOULD REPROGRAM IT AGAIN. IT DID NOT HELP. I COULD NOT AFFORD TO KEEP TAKING IT BACK, BECAUSE THEY CHARGE ME EVERY TIME TO KEEP TELLING ME THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. MY CAR BEGAN TO NOT ACCELERATE WHEN I WAS MAKING A TURN OR WHEN I WAS ACCELERATING IN TRAFFIC. WE TOOK IT BACK TO PRESTON AND WE WERE TOLD THAT THEY HAD PUT A DEVICE IN TO MONITOR THE TRANSMISSION AS WELL AS REPROGRAMMED IT AGAIN. MY CAR CONTINUED TO JUDDER AND SHAKE AND FAIL TO ACCELERATE. THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FILED AND NISSAN EXTENDED THE WARRANTIES TO 84,000 MILES. MY CAR IS NOW AT 87,000 AND A NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN MICHIGAN IS NOW STATING THAT IT NEEDS A NEW TRANSMISSION AND A COOLING FAN. NISSAN CORPORATE OFFICE IS NOW TELLING ME THAT THEY WILL PAY 90% OF THE FAN AND ONLY 50% OF THE TRANSMISSION. I BOUGHT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR. THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT THE ONLY THING WRONG WITH THIS CAR. IT HAS BEEN ONE THING AFTER THE OTHER. DOOR LOCK MOTOR, VISOR, HOOD RELEASE, TRUNK LATCH, BRAKE LIGHTS REMAIN ON WHEN CAR IS OFF, AIRBAG INDICATOR...THE LIST GOES ON AND ON.

OUR PATHFINDER HAS BEEN RECALLED TWICE FOR PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG MALFUNCTIONS. DESPITE HAVING BEEN "REPAIRED" ON BOTH OCCASIONS, THE AIRBAG LIGHT STARTED FLASHING. NISSAN IS NOW INFORMING US THAT THE ENTIRE AIRBAG SYSTEM IS DEFECTIVE, YET THEY MAINTAIN THAT THIS ISSUE IS UNRELATED TO THE PRIOR RECALLS AND AS SUCH, HAVE REFUSED TO COVER THE COST OF REPAIR. IN ADDITION, THE VISORS ON BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES HAVE BROKEN AND ARE SAGGING, IMPAIRING VISION DURING VEHICLE OPERATION. IN RESEARCHING SOLUTIONS, WE HAVE DISCOVERED THAT BOTH ISSUES ARE COMMON COMPLAINTS FOR DRIVERS OF OUR SPECIFIC MODEL PATHFINDER, YET NISSAN SEEMS TO BE DOING NOTHING TO FIX THESE RECURRENT DEFECTS.

SINCE THE DAY WE BOUGHT THIS BRAND NEW 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER VEHICLE THE ORANGE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ILLUMINATED ALMOST ALL OF THE TIME WHILE PASSENGER IS IN THE FRONT SEAT. WE HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO CHERRY HILL NISSAN DEALERSHIP AT LEAST 4 TIMES COMPLAINING ABOUT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT BEING ON EVEN WITH AN ADULT PASSENGER SITTING IN THE FRONT SEAT. (AND THEN WITH NO ONE SITTING IN THE SEAT - SOMETIMES THE LIGHT IS ON, SOMETIMES IT IS OFF) ALL THOSE TIMES I GOT AN EXPLANATION THAT IT IS JUST A SOFTWARE GLINCH AND THEY TRY SOME FIX THAT DOES NOT WORK. THEY UPDATED THE COMPUTER SOFTWARE BUT TO DATE ALMOST EVERY SINGLE TIME THERE IS A PASSENGER IN THE SEAT THE AIRBAG LIGHT WILL COME ON. I'M JUST WORRIED THAT IF THE VEHICLE WILL GET IN AN ACCIDENT AND SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE FRONT, THAT SOMEONE IS NOT PROTECTED FROM THE IMPACT.I HAVE CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS WHO TOLD ME NOT TO LET ANYONE SIT IN FRONT SEAT - THAT'S NOT A VERY GOOD SOLUTION AND FOR THE COST OF THE VEHICLE I SHOULD BE ABLE TO ALLOW PEOPLE TO SIT IN MY FRONT SEAT ESPECIALLY WHEN DUE TO THE # OF PEOPLE I NEED TO USE THE FRONT SEAT.

THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED IN MAY 2015. THE VEHICLE HAD 54K MILES. WITHIN 45 DAYS OF PURCHASE NOTICED THAT WHILE PULLING INTO TRAFFIC THE VEHICLE WOULD HESITATE. THIS WAS ALSO NOTICED WHEN BEGINNING FROM A COMPLETE STOP. TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO LIBERTY GMC IN PEORIA, AZ WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED. WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS SENT TO NISSAN AND THEY DID SOME REPROGRAMMING. GOT THE CAR BACK AND IT CONTINUED THE SAME ISSUES. TOOK BACK A WEEK LATER AND SUPPOSEDLY THEY PUT A NEW TRANSMISSION ON THE VEHICLE. WELL HERE WE ARE 1 YEAR LATER AND THE SAME ISSUES ARE HAPPENING AGAIN. THIS TIME WITH THE ADDED BONUS OF A CLUNK WHEN YOU HIT THE ACCELERATOR. WILL BE TAKING IN AGAIN NEXT WEEK. SECOND ISSUE IS WITH MY WIFE ( WHO IS 8 MONTHS PREGNANT) SITTING IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT THE LIGHT SAYING AIRBAG IS OFF STAYS ON. NISSAN SEEMS TO NOT BE TAKING SOME OF THESE ISSUES VERY SERIOUSLY.

NUMEROUS TIMES I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP ( DICK SCOTT NISSAN OF CANTON ) COMPLAINING ABOUT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WAS LID ON EVEN WITH AN ADULT PASSENGER WAS SITTING IN THE FRONT SEAT. ALL THOSE TIMES I GOT AN EXPLANATION THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE SYSTEM. THEY WON'T EVEN WRITE IT UP AS A COMPLAINT. THEY UPDATED THE COMPUTER SOFTWARE BUT TO DATE I STILL NOTICED EVERY NOW AND THEN THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT WILL COME ON. I'M JUST WORRIED THAT IF THE VEHICLE WILL GET IN AN ACCIDENT AND SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE FRONT, THAT SOMEONE IS NOT PROTECTED FROM THE IMPACT.

TOOK CAR IN BECAUSE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS STAYING ON WITH AN ADULT SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WHILE THE CAR WAS BOTHER STATIONARY AND IN MOTION. DEALER UPDATED SOFTWARE AND LIGHT WENT OUT FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS. THEN I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM INTERMITENTLY. I TOOK THE CAR BACK IN, THEY TRIED TO UPDATE THE SOFTWARE AGAIN BUT IT WOULDN'T WORK. THE DEALER SAID THE ONLY SOLUTION WAS TO REPLACE THE OCS, BUT THEY SAID THEY WOULD DO IT AT COST. I THOUGHT THAT IF IT WAS A SAFETY CONCERN THE MAUFACTURER WAS TO REPAIR IT AT THEIR COST NOT MINE.

I JUST PURCHASED MY VEHICLE LAST WEEK. WHEN I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON AND EVEN WHEN SOMEONE WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS STILL ON STATING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WAS TURNED OFF. I WAS ADVISED THERE IS A RECALL OUT FOR THIS ISSUE. THIS SITUATION SEEMS SIMILAR TO A COUPLE OTHER RECALLS ON THE 2013 PATHFINDERS. I'M UNSURE IF THE REPAIRS WERE DONE BEFORE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE BUT IF THEY WERE THE ISSUE STILL REMAINS. SINCE THERE ARE NO OPEN RECALLS FROM MY VEHICLE. EITHER MY VEHICLE WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALLS OR THE REPAIRS WERE ATTEMPTED BUT THE PROBLEM REMAINS. I JUST WANT THE VEHICLE TO BE SAFE FOR ME AND MY FAMILY.

Mileage: 41,068

OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM IS INCORRECTLY SAYING THAT THE PASSENGER SEAT IS EMPTY, WHEN IN FACT OCCUPIED BY AN ADULT. NISSAN IS SAYING THAT BASED ON MY VIN# MY VEHICLE IS NOT PART OF THE CURRENT RECALL FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM. THIS MAY LEAD TO SERIOUS INJURY AND/OR DEATH OF A PASSENGER IF INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT.

VEHICLE STALLS AT VARIOUS TIMES WHILE DRIVING, WILL NOT ACCELERATE WHILE PRESSING ON GAS PEDAL. HAS NOW HAPPENED 6 TIMES IN 3 MONTHS. STALLED ALSO, WHILE ON CRUISE CONTROL GOING DOWNHILL AND WOULD NOT ENGAGE UNTIL ON LEVEL SURFACE FOR 15 SECONDS, LOST 35 MPH DURING THIS INCIDENT. PASSENGER SIDE FRONT AIRBAG LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED INDICATING THAT NO ONE IS IN SEAT WHILE SEAT IS OCCUPIED. I HAVE SEVERAL PHOTOS AND DATES OF THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM.

I HAVE A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT STAYING ON WHEN SOMEONE IS IN THE SEAT. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER FIVE TIMES SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT. EVEN AFTER THE MANDATORY RECALLS THE PROBLEM SPORADICALLY STILL EXISTS. SOMETIMES THE LIGHT STAYS ON BRIEFLY AND OTHER TIMES IT STAYS ON UP TO THIRTY MINUTES. I NEVER GET A GOOD EXPLANATION BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT OTHER THAN WE CHECKED OR ADJUSTED THE SENSOR. AFTER THREE YEARS I THINK IT IS TIME NISSAN STEPS UP AND FIXES THE PROBLEM PROPERLY. IT APPEARS THE DEALERSHIPS CANNOT DO ANYTHING WITHOUT THE COOPERATION OF NISSAN CORPORATE OR GOVERNMENT ACTION. IT DOES NO GOOD COMPLAINING TO THE SERVICE PERSONNEL. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AGAIN.

TAKATA RECALL WHILE THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN MOTION, THE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS REMAINED ON SEVERAL TIMES WHILE THE SEAT HAS BEEN OCCUPIED. 7 ATTEMPTS AT REPAIR HAVE BEEN ATTEMPTED, INCLUDING REPLACING PARTS AND UPDATING SENSORS. I HAVE ALL REPAIR DOCUMENTS FROM 2 NISSAN DEALERSHIPS ALONG WITH NISSANS' LETTER AND EMAIL THAT THEY WERE NOT IN A POSITION TO HELP ME.

WHILE TURNING AT A STOPS SIGN ON A CITY STREET, GOING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH, I HIT A SHALLOW POTHOLE & MY ENTIRE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THE AIRBAG HIT MY 8 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IN THE FACE WHO WAS SITTING IN THE BACK PASSENGER SEAT. THIS CAUSED HER TO HAVE SWELLING, REDNESS & WHELPS TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF HER FACE & NECK. I SUBMITTED A CLAIM TO NISSAN TO WHICH THEY DETERMINED THAT THEY WERE NOT LIABLE FOR THE DAMAGES CAUSED BY THE AIRBAGS TO THE INTERIOR OF MY VEHICLE.

PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT REMAINS ON WHEN MY MOTHER IS THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. SHE ONLY WAYS ABOUT 90 LBS, NISSAN SAYS THIS IS A CHILDS WEIGHT AND THE PERSON SHOULD BE IN THE BACKSEAT. I COMPLAINED TO THE DEALER AND THEY HAD A FACTORY REPRESENTATIVE CALL ME. THEY TOLD ME THE SAME THING, I SHOULD PUT MY MOTHER IN THE BACK SEAT. I HAD MANY VEHICLES IN MY LIFETIME AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAD THIS ISSUE. IS THIS AN ISSUE WITH ALL NISSANS. WE ALSO HAVE A 2015 KIA OPTIMA AND THAT AIRBAG WARNING WORKS FINE.

Mileage: 23,000

THE AIRBAG SENSOR RANDOMLY DOES NOT DETECT A FULL SIZE ADULT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND THEREFORE SHUTS OFF THE AIR BAG. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON MANY OCCASIONS AND THESE ARE FULL GROWN ADULTS SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THIS SUV HAS BEEN IN FOR A RECALL O N THIS SENSOR, BUT THAT STILL DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I HAVE ATTACHED A PICTURE TAKEN ON 10/9/2015, SHOWING THE AIRBAG SHUTOFF LIGHT ILLUMINATED, WITH A FULL GROWN MALE PASSENGER SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT

Mileage: 19,845

THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYED LIT WITH A 250 LB PASSENGER IN THE SEAT UNTIL WE REACHED OUR DESTINATION. WE REPORTED IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS, AND COULDN'T DUPLICATE IT. IT USUALLY HAPPENS IF THE PASSENGER GETS IN AS THE CAR IS BEING STARTED.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR INTO A GRAVEL DRIVEWAY, I BRAKED ON THE PAVEMENT TO MAKE MY TURN, TURNING INTO THE GRAVEL DRIVEWAY, WHEN I PRESSED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SLOW THE CAR, I HAD ABSOLUTELY NO BRAKES. THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP. I HAD TO QUICKLY TURN THE CAR TO AVOID HITTING ANOTHER VEHICLE AND A BUILDING, AND HAD TO SLAM THE TRANSMISSION INTO PARK TO GET THE VEHICLE TO STOP. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP, ADVISED THEM OF THE ISSUE, AS THEY WERE OVER AN HOUR AWAY, THEY SENT SOMEONE WITH A TRAILER TO COME PICK UP THE CAR. DURING THIS TIME, I ALSO ADVISED THEM OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT COMING ON WHILE I HAD A PASSENGER IN THE SEAT, STATING THAT THE AIRBAG WAS OFF. MY PASSENGER WAS MY TEENAGE SON, WEIGHING OVER 120 LBS. I ALSO HAD MY HUSBAND IN THE SEAT, OVER 250 LBS, THE LIGHT STILL CAME ON. NISSAN STATED THIS WAS ALL DUE TO A COMPUTER ISSUE, THEY PROVIDED ME WITH A LOANER CAR AS I WAS WITHOUT MY CAR FOR OVER 1 WEEK. THEY EVEN TRIED TO SELL ME THE LOANER CAR, THIS SHOULD TELL A PERSON SOMETHING RIGHT?? I HAVE HAD WEATHER STRIPPING COME OFF MY CAR WHILE I AM DRIVING, AROUND THE DRIVER SIDE ROOF, PAINT IS PEELING ON THE REAR BUMPER, SOMETIMES THE CAR WON'T RECOGNIZE MY KEY FOB TO START, STATING INCORRECT KEY ID. THE CAR STALLS, HESITATES, SMOKES, TRANSMISSION "JERKS", LIKE IT WANTS TO GIVE UP, THE AC DOES NOT BLOW COLD AIR, SOMETIMES ITS EVEN WARM. I WILL NOT LET ANYONE DRIVE MY CAR FOR FEAR THAT IT WILL STALL OUT OR NOT STOP. SOMETIMES, WHEN YOU PRESS THE GAS PEDAL, THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE, OR IT HESITATES TO MOVE. I HAVE ANOTHER RECALL TO HAVE REPAIRED, THE HOOD LATCH...WITH THE DEALERSHIP OVER AN HOUR AWAY, WORKING FULL TIME, THEY ONLY REPAIR RECALLS DURING THE WEEK, HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO HAVE IT FIXED, WHEN THE HOOD LATCH FAILS AND I WRECK? SERIOUSLY, RECALL THE VEHICLE, IT HAS SO MANY SAFETY RECALLS, ITS JUST NOT SAFE.

THE RECALL FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT INDICATING THAT THE AIRBAG IS NOT ARMED WAS PERFORMED IN 2014. I NEVER HAD AN ISSUE WITH THIS LIGHT UNTIL AFTER THE RECALL WAS PERFORMED. SINCE THEN, IT OCCURS PERIODICALLY FOR SEVERAL MINUTES, DESPITE A PASSENGER OF FROM 80 LBS TO 215 LBS. I TELL THEM TO SIT BACK HARDER OR LIFT THEIR BUTT UP AND SIT DOWN AGAIN TO SEE IF THE LIGHT GOES OFF. SOMETIMES IT DOES WITH THE HEAVIEST PASSENGERS, BUT NOT WITH THE LIGHTEST. THIS IS VERY INTERMITTENT AND THE DEALER REPS CAN NEVER DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I SUSPECT THE ISSUE IS IN THE SENSORS IN THE SEAT, BUT WHO KNOWS? OBVIOUSLY, THERE ARE MANY OTHER PATHFINDERS WITH THE SAME ON-GOING PROBLEM AND THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW IF THE AIRBAG IS REALLY INOPERATIVE OR WHETHER IT WILL WORK DESPITE THE LIGHT. I DON'T WANT TO FIND OUT EITHER! FORTUNATELY, I DRIVE CAREFULLY.

IN MAY 2014, THERE WAS A NHTSA RECALL(14V-138) FOR THE OCS SYSTEM THAT "IN THE AFFECTED VEHICLES, THE OCS SOFTWARE MAY INCORRECTLY CLASSIFY THE PASSENGER SEAT AS EMPTY WHEN IT IS OCCUPIED BY AN ADULT." AS A RESULT OF THIS SAFETY ISSUE, THE POSSIBILITY OF FAILURE OF THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY INCREASES THE RISK OF INJURY TO THE PASSENGER. MY NISSAN PATHFINDER, PURCHASED JUNE 2013 AT AIRPORT NISSAN IN CLEVELAND, OH, WAS SERVICED FOR THIS RECALL IN JUNE 2014; HOWEVER, THE SAFETY ISSUE WAS NOT RESOLVED BY THE SOFTWARE REPROGRAMMING AND THIS ISSUE CONTINUES IN MY VEHICLE TO THIS DAY. MY CAR HAS BEEN IN FOR SERVICE 9 TIMES RELATED TO THIS ISSUE AS THIS SAFETY CONCERN WAS REPORTED BEFORE THE RECALL WAS ISSUED, FIRST REPORTED FEBRUARY 2014. THE AIRPORT NISSAN SERVICE DEPT HAS REPLACED THE AIRBAG CONTROL UNIT, REPLACED THE SEAT FRAME, REPLACED BOTH SENSORS, ENSURED PROPER TORQUEING AND COMPLETED ZERO POINT CALIBRATIONS PER THE SERVICE WRITE UPS AND DIRECTION OF NISSAN CORPORATE. A COMPLAINT WAS FILED WITH NISSAN NORTH AMERICA AND NISSAN REGIONAL DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLESHOOTER, BILL MCRAY WAS SENT TO TEST MY VEHICLE. THE ISSUE COULD NOT BE REPRODUCED DURING TESTING AND NO CODES SHOWED ON THE SYSTEM. HOWEVER, I HAVE VIDEO OF THE LIGHT ON WHILE A PASSENGER IS IN THE SEAT FROM EARLY 2014 UP TO JULY 2, 1015. NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS DEPT RULED THAT THEY WERE NOT IN A POSITION TO BUY BACK MY CAR AND BECAUSE MY CAR IS STILL IN WARRANTY, THEY WOULD NOT OFFER ASSISTANCE IN PURCHASING A NEW PATHFINDER; EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE NOT OFFERED ANY OTHER POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS TO FIX THE SAFETY CONCERN. A CERTIFIED LETTER WAS SENT JUNE 17, 2015, REQUESTING ASSISTANCE, TO NISSAN NORTH AMERICA - MR. FRED DIAZ, SR. VP SALES & MARKETING AND OPERATIONS, AND MR. JOSE MUNOZ, EXECUTIVE VP, WITH AN EMAIL COPY ALSO SENT. A FOLLOW UP PHONE CALL TO THE EXECUTIVE LINE WAS MADE JUNE 30, 2015 WITH STILL NO RESPONSE RECEIVED.

MY 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER WAS INVOLVED IN A SIDE IMPACT ACCIDENT ON MAY 11TH, 2014. THREE OCCUPANTS OF MY MV WERE INJURED, INCLUDING MYSELF. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAGS. WITH THIS RECALL THE SIDE PASSENGER AIRBAGS WOULD FAIL TO DEPLOY IN A SIDE IMPACT ACCIDENT. AFTER MAY 11, 2014, I TOOK MY 2013 PATHFINDER TO LIA NISSAN IN ENFIELD, CT, TO HAVE MY AIRBAGS INSPECTED TO SEE IF THEY OPERATED PROPERLY IN THE ACCIDENT. WITHOUT INSPECTING THE VEHICLE, THE FEMALE SERVICE TECH./MANAGER TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULD SURELY HAVE OPERATED PROPERLY IN THE ACCIDENT AS DESIGNED. THE SERVICE EMPLOYEE STATED I NEEDED TO HAVE MY VEHICLE REPAIRED SO THEY COULD PERFORM THE RECALL ON THE PASSENGER AIRBAGS/AIR BAG SENSOR. THEY WOULD NOT INSPECT THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. DAMAGE TO THE 2013 PATHFINDER INCLUDED FRAME DAMAGE, BOTH PASSENGER DOORS WERE INOPERABLE AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT FRAME WAS REPLACED AS IT WAS BENT IN THE ACCIDENT. MV WAS REPAINTED. AFTER THE REPAIRS, I WAS STILL HAVING ISSUES WITH THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT STAYING ON INDICATING THE AIRBAGS WERE OFF. AT VARIOUS NORMAL SERVICE (OIL CHANGES ETC...) I INFORMED NISSAN TECHS ABOUT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT. I WAS GIVEN THIS ADVICE FROM THE SERVICE TECH. IF THE LIGHT COMES ON AGAIN TURN THE MV ON AND OFF TO RESET THE SENSOR. MARCH 2015 AFTER READING THE ARTICLE REGARDING THE NHTSA INVESTIGATION INTO THESE SAME ISSUES. I AGAIN TOOK MY MV TO LIA NISSAN IN ENFIELD, CT. TO INQUIRE ABOUT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT BEING STILL ON. THEY TOLD ME THE ISSUE WAS FIXED WITH THE RECALL AND EVEN IF THE PASSENGER (AIRBAG OFF) LIGHT IS ON, THE AIR BAGS WOULD STILL WORK PROPERLY. THE TECHNICIAN SAID THE PROPER "OFF" INDICATOR WAS THE AIRBAG LIGHT IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. I WAS THEN ADVISED AGAIN TO TURN MY MV OFF THEN ON TO RESET THE SENSOR. I DO NOT CONSIDER THIS ISSUE TO BE RESOLVED.

WHILE IT IS UNDERSTANDABLE A FALSE READING WILL OCCUR SINCE WEIGHT IS CHANGING AS IT IS SAMPLED, MY ISSUE IS THAT THE FAULT DOES NOT CLEAR FOR 25 TO 30 MINUTES BEFORE THE PROPER WEIGHT IS SENSED. . WHEN WE NOTICE THE WARNING LIGHT I STOP AND TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON "FIXING" THE ISSUE. BUT THE WARNING LIGHT IS HARD TO SEE IF SUN IS SHINING ON THE DASH BOARD AND AT TIMES WE HAVE ALREADY ENTERED A FREEWAY WITH NO GOOD PLACE TO PULL OVER. *TR

INDICATOR LIGHT FOR PASSENGER FRONT AIR BAG INTERMITTENTLY WOULD SAY THAT IT IS OFF WHEN MY WIFE (141 LBS.) SITS IN THE SEAT. WHEN WE WENT TO CURRY NISSAN, 765 MEMORIAL DRIVE, CHICOPEE, MA 01020, THE DEALER WE WERE TOLD THERE WAS NO ASSIGNED WEIGHT FOR THE SENSOR AND SHE SHOULD EAT MORE FOR LUNCH TO GAIN SOME WEIGHT. WE WENT ROUND AND ROUND FOR THE NEXT FEW MONTHS UNTIL THEY SAID THERE WAS A FIX WHICH THEY DID BUT THE PROBLEM WAS STILL THERE. THEN WE WERE TOLD TO WAIT A FEW WEEKS AND THE WOULD HAVE MORE INFORMATION ON THE SITUATION. WHEN I WENT BACK THEY PUT A WEIGHT ON THE FRONT SEAT AND SAID THE SWITCH WAS WORKING FINE. A FEW DAYS LATER WHEN MY WIFE GOT IN THE VEHICLE AGAIN THE LIGHT INDICATED THAT THE AIR BAG WAS OFF. AFTER A LITTLE OVER 2 YEARS OF ALWAYS BEING AFRAID THAT IF WE EVER HAVE A CRASH WHERE THE FRONT AIR BAG SHOULD DEPLOY AND DOES NOT WE WOULD NOT BE HAPPY WITH THE END RESULTS OF HAVING THIS DEFECT IN THE VEHICLE. TODAY WE SAW A REPORT ON COMPLAINTS FILED BY OTHERS ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE AND WANTED TO PUT OUR INFORMATION INTO THE COMPLAINT. *TR

MY VEHICLE WAS RECALLED BY NISSAN FOR THE AIRBAG SENSOR FAILING TO RECOGNIZE WHEN THERE IS A PASSENGER OCCUPYING THE PASSENGER SEAT, THE RECALL WAS SUPPOSED TO FIX THE ERROR IN THE SENSOR. HOWEVER, AFTER THEY "FIXED THE PROBLEM," THE SENSOR CONTINUES TO INDICATE THERE IS NO PASSENGER IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WHILE OCCUPIED, AND THE AIR BAG IS NOT TURNED ON. WHEN I INQUIRED ABOUT THIS THE MOST RECENT TIME THE VEHICLE WAS IN FOR SERVICE AT THE DEALERSHIP (NISSAN OF OMAHA), THEY TOLD ME THAT THE PROBLEM HAD BEEN FIXED, AND EVEN IF IT INDICATES THE AIRBAG IS TURNED OFF, IT IS ACTUALLY ON. NOT ONLY DID THEY FAIL TO FIX THIS SAFETY PROBLEM, BUT THEY ALSO LIED ABOUT IT WORKING! THIS IS VERY DECEITFUL, AND COULD BE A MAJOR LIABILITY ISSUE AND LAWSUIT DOWN THE ROAD. *TR

DRIVING AT 55 MPH AND NOTICED THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT WAS LIT INDICATING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WAS DISABLED. MY WIFE IS OVER 135 LBS AND HAD HER SEATBELT ON. I PULLED OVER AND PUT CAR IN NEUTRAL. DID NOT FIX PROBLEM. PUT IN PARK AND RESTARTED CAR AND LIGHT WENT OUT. THIS HAS OCCURRED PREVIOUSLY AND SOLUTION WAS THE SAME. I TOOK A PICTURE OF THE LIGHT WITH WIFE IN THE SEAT. REPORTED TO DEALERSHIP AND HE SAID SOMETIMES THE ONBOARD COMPUTER GETS CONFUSED AND THE RESTART CLEARS THE ISSUE. HE SAID THE WEIGHT WAS AN ISSUE ALTHOUGH FED GUIDELINES ARE 108 LBS. HE ALSO SAID THAT THE SEATBELT WOULD DO THE JOB AND THAT AIRBAGS WOULD ONLY RESULT IN INJURY TO THE PASSENGER... TOLD HIM I WAS NOT BUYING HIS BS. *TR

WHEN THIS HAPPENED I ASKED HER TO EXIT THE VEHICLE THEN SIT BACK DOWN. THIS SEEMS TO TEMPORARILY SOLVED THE PROBLEM. WHEN I TOOK THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE VEHICLE AIRBAG. AFTER THE SERVICE THE DEALER TOLD ME THE PROBLEM WAS CORRECTED. HOWEVER, PERIODICALLY I NOTICED THAT THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTED. JUST RECENTLY A FRIEND WHO IS APPROXIMATELY 170LBS WAS IN THE FRONT SEAT. THE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYED ON. SHE EXITED THE VEHICLE AND THEN SAT BACK DOWN BUT THE LIGHT STAYED ON FOR A FEW MINUTES OF DRIVING BEFORE GOING OFF. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE AIR BAG PASSENGER'S SIDE WARNING LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED EVEN WITH AN OCCUPANT PRESENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THERE WAS A RECALL UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V138000 (AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) AND THE VIN WAS INCLUDED. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE A PROBLEM AND INFORMED THAT THE PASSENGER DID NOT WEIGH ENOUGH AND CONTRIBUTED TO THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER. VEHICLE HAS REPEATED PROBLEMS OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. *TA THE CONSUMER STATED IN JUNE 2014, HE RECEIVED A RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE R1405 TO REPROGRAM THE SOFTWARE. THE REPROGRAMMING WAS COMPLETE, BUT DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM SO HE HAD TO RETURN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR ANOTHER REPROGRAM, BUT TO NO AVAIL. ON DECEMBER 1, 2014, THE CONSUMER RETURNED TO THE DEALER SO THEY COULD REPLACE THE SEAT SENSORS TO ELIMINATE THE PROBLEM WHICH DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THE DEALER CLAIMED IT MIGHT BE A CONTROLLER THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER ADVISED THE CONSUMER NOT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE, UNTIL THE ISSUE WAS RESOLVED. *JB

BACK IN JUNE 2013 WE FOUND THAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT WOULD INDICATE THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WAS OFF EVEN IF AN ADULT OVER 5 FOOT 4 INCHES AND OVER 150 LBS WITH SEAT BELT ON WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT SPORADICALLY. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THERE WAS A RECALL FOR 2013 PATHFINDERS, ACCORDING TO OUR DEALER OURS WAS NOT INCLUDED THOUGH EVEN THOUGH THE LIGHT WOULD COME ON. THEY SAID BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT REPRODUCE THE ISSUE (THEY TRIED A FEW TIME) AND THAT THEY WOULD NOT FIX IT, BUT THAT THEY DID PERFORM A RE-CALIBRATION ON IT. A YEAR LATER I GOT NOTICE THE RECALL HAD BEEN EXPANDED TO INCLUDE MY PATHFINDER SO I TOOK IT BACK IN AND THEY SAID THEY PERFORMED THE RECALL HOWEVER A WEEK LATER WE GOT THE WARNING AGAIN THAT THE AIRBAG WAS OFF SO THE PROCEDURE THEY DID, NOT FIX OUR ISSUE. I CONTACTED NISSAN CORPORATE AND WAS ASSURED BY [XXX] THAT THEY KNEW THAT THE RECALL WORK DID NOT ALWAYS FIX IT BUT THEY HAD INFORMATION THEY WERE NOT GIVING TO THE DEALERS THAT HE COULD DISCUSS WITH THEM TO FIX IT. I WAS GIVEN CASE NUMBER [XXX] AND I TOOK IT BACK IN ON NOVEMBER 16TH. WE DROPPED IT OFF AND THAT DAY THEY TOLD US NO WORK WAS TO BE PERFORMED BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT RECREATE IT. I INFORMED HIM THAT BACK IN EARLY NOVEMBER THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AND THAT IT WAS SPORADIC AND THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED THEY COULD DO NOTHING. I GAVE THEM [XXX] INFO WITH NISSAN AND NEITHER HIM NOR I COULD GET A HOLD OF HIM THAT WEEK SO I PICKED THE CAR BACK UP AND CONTACTED NISSAN CORPORATE AND WAS GIVEN THE RUN AROUND AFTER BEING GIVEN A NEW CASE NUMBER OF [XXX]. THE BOTTOM LINE IS A RECALL FOR MY CAR HAS BEEN MANDATED BY NHTSA, BUT WHAT WAS PERFORMED ON MY VEHICLE DID NOT WORK AND NISSAN IS NOT FIXING IT OR EVEN TRYING TO WORK WITH ME. I DO HAVE PHOTO PROOF THAT THERE IS STILL AN ISSUE AND THAT THE AIRBAG OFF LIGHT ILLUMINATES EVEN WHEN IT SHOULD NOT.

WE DROVE FOR 45 MINUTES AT 55 MPH AND THAT INDICATOR LIGHT NEVER WENT OFF, MEANING THAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WOULD NOT DISCHARGE IN AN EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. THE CAR WAS BROUGHT IN MANY TIMES LAST YEAR DURING THE SUMMER AND AFTER COMPLAINTS TO NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE A MECHANIC CAME TO EVALUATE CAR AND HE DID SOME WORK ON IT AND THE PROBLEM DISAPPEARED FOR SOME TIME. IT STARTED TO RE-OCCUR RECENTLY AND I BROUGHT IT TO NISSAN 112, WHO TOLD ME THERE IS NO PROBLEM DETECTED AND COMPUTER DID NOT THROW A CODE.

THE SENSOR LIGHT SAYS THAT THE AIR BAG IS OFF WHILE A PERSON IS SITTING IN THE SEAT. THEY HAVE RESET THE SENSOR SEVERAL TIMES AND IT IS STILL NOT FIXED. I AM CONCERNED THAT IF I GET IN AN ACCIDENT MY PASSENGER (USUALLY MY DAUGHTER) WILL NOT BE SAFE BECAUSE THERE IS A CHANCE THAT THE AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY. I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE ADVISOR THAT IF I WAS THAT WORRIED OR CONCERNED THAT I SHOULDN'T HAVE ANYONE SIT IN THAT SEAT AND JUST HAVE THEM RIDE IN THE MIDDLE ROW OR THE BACK ROW. WHO WOULD SPEND $28,000.00 ON A VEHICLE AND NOT HAVE IT SAFE?? I WAS APPALLED WHEN THE SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME THIS. THIS WILL BE MY LAST NISSAN I EVER PURCHASE. I ASKED THEM TO REPLACE THE SENSORS AND WAS TOLD THAT NISSAN WOULD NOT AUTHORIZE THIS REPAIR BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW WHY THE SENSOR IS NOT WORKING. THE COMPUTER DOES NOT REGISTER FAULT CODES.

THE AIRBAG SENSOR WILL ILLUMINATE DESPITE A PASSENGER WEIGHING OVER 120LBS IN THE SEAT. AND OTHER TIMES THE SENSOR WILL NOT COME ON AS IT SHOULD WHEN A CHILD IS SITTING IN THE SEAT - WE DID THIS AS A TEST WITHOUT DRIVING AND THE LIGHT WOULD NOT COME ON.

MY 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER HAS INTERMITTENTLY LIT UP THE DISABLED PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT WHILE A FULL-SIZED ADULT WAS SEATED CORRECTLY IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. MY OCS MODULE WAS REPROGRAMMED IN MAY, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RECALL. YET, MY CAR STILL CHOOSES TO CLASSIFY CORRECTLY A SEATED ADULT WEIGHING 150 LBS TO 280 LBS AS EITHER AN EMPTY SEAT OR ONE OCCUPIED BY A CHILD OR SMALL ADULT, SHUTTING OFF THE AIR BAG ACCORDINGLY. WHEN THE AIR BAG IS OFF, NO AMOUNT OF FIDGETING OR RE-POSITIONING WILL MAKE THE OCS RECLASSIFY THE PASSENGER (CONTRARY TO WHAT THE SAFETY SERVICE BULLETIN UPDATE SAYS). THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME ON MY LAST VISIT CONCERNING THIS MATTER THAT IF MY PASSENGER IS RECLINED OR LEANING ON THE DOOR, IT WOULD DISABLE THE AIRBAG. THE LAST TIME THIS HAPPENED, I HAD MY PASSENGER, A 6 FT, 240 LB MAN SHIFT TO TRY TO GET THE OCS TO RECLASSIFY HIM, TO NO AVAIL. THE ONLY WAY TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE WAS TO STOP THE CAR, TURN IT OFF AND WAIT A FEW MINUTES. I SHOULD ALSO MENTION THAT THE DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO REPLACE THE SENSORS SINCE NO ERROR CODES ARE STORED IN THE SYSTEM. MY CAR HAS JUST COME BACK FROM ANOTHER "REPAIR" AT THE DEALERSHIP, WHERE I WAS TOLD THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. THEY HANDED ME A STACK OF PAPERS THAT EXPLAIN THAT THIS SOMETIMES HAPPENS FOR THE PASSENGER'S OWN PROTECTION, AND GAVE SUGGESTIONS THAT INCLUDED MY ABOVE "FIX." IT IS INSANE TO SUGGEST THAT THE SYSTEM IS WORKING PROPERLY, BUT I MIGHT HAVE TO STOP MY CAR AND WAIT A MINUTE TO MAKE IT DO WHAT IT WAS SUPPOSED TO DO ON START UP. FOR OTHERS WITH THIS ISSUE, THE PAPERS ALSO SUGGEST THAT THE OCS CAN BE TAKING TOO LONG TO CLASSIFY YOUR PASSENGER BECAUSE YOUR A/C FAN SPEED IS SET TOO HIGH. THE "FIX" IS THAT YOU SHOULD SIT AND SWEAT SO THE PROPERLY FUNCTIONING OCS CAN DETERMINE THE CORRECT CLASSIFICATION FOR YOUR PASSENGER. *TR

THE DEALER SAYS THAT IT HAPPENS ON A LOT OF THE PATHFINDERS AND NISSAN HAS TOLD THEM IT IS NORMAL.

THIS DID NOT REMEDY THE SITUATION, AS IT OCCURRED AGAIN SEVERAL TIMES. IT WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY DID A REPROGRAM, YET AGAIN. THE PROBLEM IS THE OCCUPANT SENSOR, I WAS TOLD. AGAIN, IT HAS CONTINUED TO HAPPEN. I CALLED AGAIN AND THEY WERE REALLY GREAT AND GOT ME IN THE NEXT DAY. THEY SAID THAT SOME OF THE VEHICLES JUST DIDN'T TAKE TO THE REPROGRAM FOR SOME REASON. IT WAS FINE FOR A WHILE, BUT THEN JUST THIS PAST WEEK IT HAS STARTED COMING ON AGAIN. THIS SIGNIFICANTLY JEOPARDIZES THE SAFETY OF THE PERSON IN THE PASSENGER SEAT IF THERE IS EVER TO BE AN ACCIDENT. THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW AND CURRENTLY HAS AROUND 6500 MILES ON IT. THE OTHER CONCERN WILL BE DOWN THE ROAD WHEN I WOULD SELL IT.

WE FIRST GOT A RECALL NOTICE, AND TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP. I ASKED THEM THAT OTHER THAN THE RECALL I NEEDED THEM TO SEE WHY THE BRAKES ON THE VEHICLE SQUEAK ON OCCASIONS. THEY SAID EVERYTHING WAS GOOD AND THAT THE BRAKES DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING. WHEN MY WIFE GOT IN A VEHICLE COLLISION A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO SHE HAD MY 2 DAUGHTERS 3 AND 4 WITH HER. THE AIRBAGS IN OUR VEHICLE DIDN'T DEPLOY AND THE OTHER VEHICLES DID. MY WIFE WAS GOING 15 MPH BUT THE OTHER VEHICLE WAS GOING ABOUT 65 MPH.

I PULL OVER ALL THE TIME TURN OFF THE SUV AND RESTART SEVERAL TIMES UNTIL IT GOES OFF. NISSAN FINALLY DID A RECALL ON IT BUT IT HAS NOT GONE AWAY. ALSO IT USED TO ILLUMINATE WHEN I SET MY DIAPER BAG ON IT WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO BUT NOW AFTER THE RECALL "FIX" IT DOES NOT ILLUMINATE WHEN SOMETHING LIGHT WEIGHT IS SET ON IT. IT HAS A MIND OF IT'S OWN AND I AM WORRIED THAT IT COULD POSSIBLY FAIL IF WE WERE TO GET INTO A COLLISION. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN SEVERAL TIMES TO CHECK IT BUT IT ALWAYS COMES UP AS WORKING PROPERLY. PLEASE FIND A FIX FOR THIS ISSUE. THE OTHER ISSUE I HAVE FOUND IS WHEN ACCELERATING THERE IS SOME KIND OF TUGGING/PULLING/LAGGING FEELING AS IF IT DOES NOT WANT TO PICK UP SPEED.

I NOTICED THAT OCCASIONALLY WHEN I WAS DRIVING AND MY WIFE WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT THAT THE "FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG STATUS LIGHT" WAS INDICATING "OFF." THE PROBLEM HAPPENED WITH OTHER PASSENGERS AS WELL. SEVERAL TIMES WHILE THIS WAS HAPPENING I DROVE TO THE NEARBY NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND PULLED INTO THE SERVICE BAY. A FEW SECONDS AFTER I CAME TO A STOP AND BEFORE A SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE COULD COME OVER THE LIGHT WENT OFF. I RETURNED THE PATHFINDER SEVERAL TIMES FOR REPAIR INCLUDING THE RECALL. THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. THE SERVICE MANAGER HAD A DEALER TECHNICAL SPECIALIST (DTS) LOOK AT THE CAR. THE DTS SAID THAT WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STARTED THE SENSORS DETERMINE IF THERE IS A CHILD IN THE SEAT AND "CLASSIFIES" THIS TO THE AIR BAG CONTROL MODULE. THERE ARE 3 CONDITIONS THAT CAN BE "CLASSIFIED" - EMPTY, CHILD, AND ADULT. WHEN THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER IS MOVED FROM PARK THE STATUS ("CLASSIFICATION") AT THAT INSTANT IS RETAINED. SUBSEQUENTLY IF THE VEHICLE COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP (REGARDLESS OF GEAR SELECTION) FOR SEVERAL SECONDS THEN THIS "CLASSIFICATION" IS REPEATED. THE DTS AND THE SERVICE MANAGER WERE ABLE TO "MANIPULATE" THE CAR TO LEAVE THE AIR BAG STATUS LIGHT DISPLAYING OFF BY PUTTING A PARTIAL LOAD IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND THEN MOVING THE GEAR SHIFT FROM PARK TO REVERSE AND SUBSEQUENTLY TO DRIVE. THE LIGHT WOULD CONTINUE TO DISPLAY OFF UNTIL THEY LET THE CAR COME TO A COMPLETE STOP FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. THEY CONCLUDED THAT THIS "MANIPULATION" WAS WHAT WAS HAPPENING WHEN MY WIFE AND OTHER PASSENGERS WERE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE ALGORITHM OF THE AIR BAG CONTROL MODULE. IT IS RELATED TO THE CHANGES MADE BY THE RECALL BUT NOT THE SPECIFIC SITUATION. THE DTS THEN SAID THAT THIS WAS "NORMAL" AND COULDN'T BE REPAIRED. THIS IS LIKE THE STEVE JOBS' "YOU'RE HOLDING IT WRONG" COMMENT BUT WITH MY PASSENGER'S SAFETY. *TR

WHEN MY WIFE, WHO WEIGHS ABOUT 112 POUNDS, SITS IN THE RIGHT SEAT, THE LIGHT COMES ON INDICATING THAT AIR BAG IS TURNED OFF. I CALLED THE DEALER (ABC NISSAN IN PHOENIX) AND THEY SAID THAT THE SYSTEM IS DESIGNED TO TURN THE AIR BAG OFF UNLESS THE OCCUPANT WEIGHS MORE THAT 110 POUNDS. THAT PUTS MY WIFE IN JEOPARDY IN THE EVENT OF A HEAD-ON COLLISION. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS NOTHING THAT THEY CAN DO - THE SENSOR CANNOT BE TURNED OFF AND THE WEIGHT LIMIT CANNOT BE CHANGED. WHY SHOULD MY WIFE'S LIFE BE JEOPARDIZED TO PROTECT IDIOTS WHO PUT SMALL CHILDREN IN THE FRONT SEAT? IF THEY WANT TO PUT A LIMIT ON THE WEIGHT, IT SHOULD BE AROUND 50 POUNDS.

I TOOK IT TO REED NISSAN THE FIRST TIME, AND THEY DIDN'T WRITE ANYTHING ON IT BECAUSE IT DIDN'T DO IT WHEN THEY TOOK IT OUT. I TOOK IT BACK A SECOND TIME AND MADE SURE THEY WROTE IT DOWN THIS TIME. THEY KEPT THE CAR TWO DAYS AND RETURNED IT WITH A NOTE STATING THE AIRBAG HAD BEEN RECALIBRATED. LESS THAN 2 WEEKS LATER, THE LIGHTS ARE BACK ON WITH PASSENGERS IN THE SEAT. THE MANAGER HAS TOLD ME THAT IS THE WAY THE LIGHTS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE FUNCTIONING. NOW I SEE THAT NISSAN IS "DECIDING" WHAT TO DO WITH THE RECALL BECAUSE OF THIS SENSOR PROBLEM THAT COULD LEAD TO THE AIRBAG FAILING. I AM PUBLICLY STATING THAT SHOULD THIS HAPPEN, IT WAS BROUGHT TO REED NISSAN'S ATTENTION, AND THEY CHOSE TO TELL ME THIS IS PROPER FUNCTIONING OF THE LIGHTS.

OUR 2013 PATHFINDER STARTED TO SHUDDER UPON ACCELERATION. IT INITIALLY HAPPENED PRIOR TO THIS MILEAGE, BUT IT WAS INTERMITTENT AND WE THOUGHT WE HAD JUST DRIVEN OVER A ROUGH PATCH OF ROAD. HOWEVER, THIS ISSUE INCREASED IN DURATION AND FREQUENCY UNTIL THE CAR WOULD ALMOST STALL. YOU WOULD HAVE TO STOP ACCELERATION AND THEN RESUME FOR IT TO STOP. IT MOST FREQUENTLY HAPPENED AFTER MAKING A TURN...UNFORTUNATELY..THIS IS OFTEN AFTER A STOP SIGN WHEN YOU NEED ACCELERATION OR GETTING ON THE FREEWAY. THE ECM HAS BEEN REFLASHED, REPLACED TORQUE CONVERTERS AND A COUPLE CVT TRANSMISSION IN THE FIRST YEAR. THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS. IT STARTS SMALL AND THEN RAMPS UP AS MILEAGE INCREASES. THE AIR BAG CONTINUES TO GO ON AND OFF WHILE A PASSENGER IS SEATED. THE PASSENGER IS AN ADULT OVER 110LBS, BUT THE DEALERSHIP MAINTAINS NOTHING IS WRONG WITH IT. WE'VE DRIVEN DOWN THE FREEWAY FOR 1 HOUR WITH NO PROBLEM AND THEN THE LIGHT WILL COME ON WHICH MEANS THE AIRBAG IS NOT FUNCTIONING. WE'VE TRIED DIFFERENT SITTING POSITIONS TO SEE IF THAT IS THE CAUSE, BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER. IT ALSO KEEPS BLOWING FUSES FOR THE REAR HEATED SEATS. *TR

METAL ON METAL SOUND STILL OCCURRING. CALLED NISSAN TO FILE YET ANOTHER CLAIM REQUESTING THAT THEY ABSORB NEGATIVE EQUITY, SINCE MY ORIGINAL CLAIM FOR THEM TO REPURCHASE VEHICLE WAS DENIED. THERE IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH THIS CAR. *TR

PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS GOING ON WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE SIT AND NOT SITTING IN THE SEAT ( PERSON IS AT THE WEIGHT LIMIT AND SITTING CORRECTLY).HAD THE CAR TO THE DEALER SHIP THREE TIMES INCLUDING ONCE FOR THE RECALL OF THIS ISSUE. THEY CAN NOT SEEM TO FIX THE ISSUE AND HAVE NO CLUE HOW TO FIX WITH MULTIPLE CALLS TO THE NISSAN TECH HOTLINE, THEY REPLACED THE SENSORS AT LEAST EVERY TIME. THIS IS STARTING TO BE A BIG SAFETY ISSUE AND WHO KNOWS IF THE AIR BAG WILL EVEN WORK WHEN NEEDED. THEY COULD NEVER DUPLICATE THE ISSUE WHEN I TAKE IT TO THE DEALER, BUT I GO ARMED WITH PICTURES ANYMORE. I HAVE OWNED MANY NISSANS AND THIS IS THE FIRST ONE THAT HAS GIVEN ME AN ISSUE. I EVEN TURNED TO NISSAN DIRECTLY AND OPENED COMPLAINTS WITH THIS ISSUE, IT SEEMS LIKE THEY JUST GIVE ME THE RUN AROUND. I AM NOT LOOKING FOR ANYTHING BUT JUST A CAR THAT WORKS, I BOUGHT A NEW CAR AND WANT A NEW CAR. IF I WANTED A CAR WITH THESE TYPE OF ISSUES I WOULD OF BOUGHT A USED ONE. NISSAN NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING WITH THIS PROBLEM IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GET HURTS OR DIES. THEN WHO'S GOING TO PAY FOR IT? I KNOW I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THESE ISSUES! *TR

THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE AIR BAG WOULD NOT RECOGNIZE THE WEIGHT OF A 75 POUND PERSON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY SERVICED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 13V069000 (AIR BAGS). AFTERWARD, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WHERE THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DUPLICATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

I JUST FILED A COMPLAINT LAST WEEK REGARDING MY AIR BAG ON MY 2 MONTH OLD PATHFINDER AND THIS WEEK I HAD TROUBLE WITH MY TRANSMISSION. APPROXIMATELY ONE MONTH AGO WHEN I WAS ACCELERATING ONTO THE HIGHWAY MY CAR SEEMED TO GET STUCK IN SECOND GEAR AND WOULD NOT GO ABOVE 30 MPH. THE RPMS WERE GOING UP TO 7000 WITHOUT ANY ADDITIONAL POWER. THIS ONLY LASTED FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS. THE DEALER CHECKED OUT THE CAR AND SAID THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT AND THAT IT MAY HAVE BEEN A COMMUNICATION PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. IT HAPPENED AGAIN THIS WEEK, AGAIN TRYING TO MERGE ONTO A HIGHWAY. THE SPEED LIMIT ON THE HIGHWAY WAS 55 AND MY PATHFINDER WOULD NOT ACCELERATE PAST 30-35 MILES PER HOUR FOR 1/4 TO 1/2 MILE. IT IS QUITE DISCONCERTING WHEN A TRACTOR TRAILER RIDES UP ON YOUR BUMPER GOING AT LEAST 55 MILES AN HOUR AND YOU HAVE NO POWER TO ACCELERATE TO GET OUT OF THE WAY. ONCE AGAIN, NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON THE DASH SO I AM SURE THAT WHEN I TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALER NEXT WEEK THEY ARE GOING TO ONCE AGAIN TELL ME THAT NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN WHEN THE TRANSMISSION CAN JUST STOP RESPONDING LIKE THAT. I DON'T KNOW HOW NISSAN CAN USE THE EXCUSE "BECAUSE IT DIDN'T TRIGGER A INTERNAL WARNING WITH THE COMPUTER, NOTHING IS WRONG." CLEARLY SOMETHING IS WRONG AND SINCE NISSAN REALLY NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. *TR

THE VEHICLE HAS HAD PROBLEMS SINCE I GOT IT. IM FED UP OF GOING TO THE NISSAN TO FIX SOMETHING EVERY FEW WEEKS. THE HEADLIGHT BULBS WERE REPLACED ON 2/4/13 THE DAY AFTER I GOT THE VEHICLE. THE RIGHT SIDE STOPPED WORKING SO THE SOCKET WAS CHANGED ON 2/7/13. ON 5/2/13 A FACTORY RECALL WAS COMPLETED. ON 7/30/13 THE WIND SHIELD WASHER PUMP FAILED AND THE PART WAS ORDERED. SAME DAY 7/30/13 PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT WOULD NOT GO OFF WHILE ADULT IS IN SEAT. NISSAN PERFORMED A ZERO POINT RESET AND LIGHT WENT OFF. ON 8/24 WASHER PUMP WAS REPLACED. AROUND 9/30/13 THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT WOULD NOT GO OFF AGAIN WITH ADULT IN SEAT. ON 10/15/13 THEY REPLACED OCS SENSOR FOR PASSENGER AIR BAG. ON 10/20/13 THE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON WHILE AN ADULT IS SITTING IN THE SEAT. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO AGAIN. NISSAN IS ASKING ME IF IM SITTING WELL ON THE SEAT OR MAYBE IM NOT HEAVY ENOUGH. IM 180LBS. JUST IMAGINE IF MY LITTLE SISTER (A MINOR) IS SITTING IN THE SEAT. THIS IS A DANGER TO MY FAMILY AND I REALLY NEED SOME HELP. *TR

MY PATHFINDER HAS A BUILD DATE OF NOV. 2012. TWO TIMES NOW THE PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR HAS FAILED TO RECOGNIZE THAT AN ADULT IS OCCUPYING THE SEAT. IT CAN BE RESET BY STOPPING THE CAR, TURNING IT OFF GETTING OUT OF THE CAR, AND REENTERING AND START BACK UP. IT THEN WORKS AS NORMAL. THE DEALER TELLS ME IT IS NOT ONE OF THE ONES THAT HAS THIS PROBLEM AND HE WILL ONLY BE ABLE TO REPAIR WHEN HE CAN WITNESS IT. I SHOWED HIM A PICTURE WITH THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ON AND THE SEAT OCCUPIED AT 70 MPH. I NOTICED IT AFTER EXITING A REST STOP ON I-10 AND DROVE TO THE NEXT REST STOP BEFORE STOPPING TO RESET. CHANGING SEATING POSITION WHILE DRIVING HAD NO EFFECT AT ALL. *TR

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A NEW 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER SL. THE FIRST DAY THAT I SAT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT (DAY 2 OF OWNERSHIP), WHILE MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING, THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED STATING THAT THE AIR BAG WAS OFF AND WOULD NOT DEPLOY IN A CRASH. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT IT WAS A KNOWN CALIBRATION PROBLEM WITH THE PATHFINDER'S SEAT SENSORS AND THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON MY CAR, BUT THAT IT NEEDED TO BE RECALIBRATED, WHICH IT WAS. AFTER HAVING THE CAR BACK FOR 1 WEEK, THE AIR BAG LIGHT WOULD COME ON INTERMITTENTLY WHILE I WAS SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT EVEN THOUGH I WAS SEATED "PROPERLY" AS DESCRIBED IN THE USER'S MANUAL. THE CAR WENT BACK TO THE DEALER AND EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS NO RECALL ON MY PARTICULAR CAR, THEY REPLACED THE SEAT SENSORS BECAUSE IT WAS A "SAFETY ISSUE." TWO WEEKS AFTER HAVING THE CAR BACK THE LIGHT IS ONCE AGAIN COMING ON WHEN I SIT NORMAL AND UPRIGHT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THE HEAD TECHNICIAN AT THE DEALERSHIP IS NOW TELLING ME THAT THE CAR IS ACTING IN MY BEST INTEREST TO INTERMITTENTLY TURN OFF THE AIRBAG LIGHT WHEN I AM SEATED IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BECAUSE OF MY SIZE. I AM A 5'4, 120 LB FEMALE. I FEEL THAT IF I AM SITTING UPRIGHT IN THE CENTER OF THE SEAT, AS A NORMAL SIZE ADULT, THE AIRBAG SHOULD NOT BE DISENGAGED. IF IT IS CALIBRATED TO DISENGAGE FOR A 120LB ADULT SEATED PROPERLY, THEN IT SHOULD CONSISTENTLY DO SO, NOT INTERMITTENTLY TURN ON AND OFF WITHOUT A CHANGE IN POSITION. NISSAN HAS TOLD ME THAT IT IS FUNCTIONING PROPERLY AND THERE IS NOTHING MORE THAT CAN BE DONE. *TR

I PURCHASED MY 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER, LESS THAN 6 MONTHS AGO. WE CURRENTLY HAVE 7100 MILES ON IT. WE HAVE NOT EVEN HAD OUR 2ND OIL CHANGE AND I HAVE ALREADY HAD IT IN THE SHOP 4 TIMES AND I HAVE TO TAKE IT IN TODAY FOR THE SAME ISSUE, DEALING WITH THE TRANSMISSION. AT ROUGHLY 1000 MILES, WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP IN KNOXVILLE TN DUE TO A STUTTERING WHEN COMING TO A STOP, PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK AND WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A STOP. WE WAS TOLD THIS WAS DUE TO THE NEW TRANSMISSION IN THE 2013 AND THE CAR WAS TRYING TO GET IN THE BEST GEAR FOR THE MOST EFFICIENT GAS MILEAGE. CAME TIME FOR OUR 1ST OIL CHANGE AT 3500 AND WE TOLD THEM TO CHECK THE STUTTER AGAIN AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS DUE TO THE TRANSMISSION, BUT THE COMPUTER WOULD CORRECT ITSELF. WE TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER AT THE BEGINNING OF SEPT AND WAS GIVEN A RENTAL FOR 2 DAYS AND WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM WAS DUE TO THE TORQUE CONVERTER AND THEY WOULD REPLACE THE PART. THEY ALSO SAID THE FIXED THE AIRBAG RECALL AT THIS APPOINTMENT. AFTER 2 DAYS THE PART CAME IN AND THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED IN 4 DAYS AFTER THE REPAIR. ON 9/26/13 THE VEHICLE WAS STILL STUTTERING WHEN I CAME TO A RED LIGHT ON A HILL. THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN AND I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL AND THE CAR DID NOT MOVE, BUT THE ENGINE RPM MOVED. THEN THE CAR KICKED INTO GEAR AND MOVED. I CAME TO ANOTHER HILL AND THE VEHICLE WAS BARELY ABLE TO MAKE IT UP THE HILL.

SUBSEQUENT TO THE RECALL REPAIRS, WE HAVE ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS HAD THE AIRBAG OFF LIGHT ILLUMINATE WITH AN ADULT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER. HE WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND UNWILLING TO PURSUE A REPAIR. HE CALLED NISSAN TECH SUPPORT AND PRINTED INFORMATION TO INSTRUCT US ON HOW THE SYSTEM OPERATES AND ON HOW TO SIT CORRECTLY IN THE SEAT. WE HAVE DRIVEN FOR MANY YEARS AND ARE AWARE OF HOW SEATS WORK.

PROBLEM 1: WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE NEW IN JULY. AFTER ABOUT TWO WEEKS THE CAR BEGIN TO SHUDDER BETWEEN 15-20 MPH. IT FEELS LIKE WE ARE DRIVING OVER RUMBLE STRIPS. WE TOOK THE CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALER WHERE WE PURCHASED IT. THEY SAID THERE WAS A CAMPAIGN FOR THE PROBLEM AND WOULD ORDER A TORQUE CONVERTER. WE WERE TOLD IT WAS ON BACK ORDER. AFTER TWO AND HALF WEEKS THE PART WAS INSTALLED. THE DAY WE PICKED UP THE CAR IT STILL HAD THE SAME ISSUES.WE HAVE NOTIFIED THE DEALERSHIP OF THE CONTINUING PROBLEM. PROBLEM 2: THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG GOES ON AND OFF RANDOMLY, TURNING OFF THE AIRBAG. WE TOLD THE DEALERSHIP WHEN WE BROUGHT IT IN FOR THE SHUDDERING. THEY SAID IT WAS A WEIGHT LIMIT ISSUE AND THE WAY WE SIT. WE TOLD THEM IT DOES IT FOR OUR SON WHO WEIGHS 90 POUNDS AND THAT WE SIT THE SAME WAY EVERY TIME. WE ALSO TOLD THEM IT DOES IT FOR ME OFF AND ON IN THE SAME DAY AND THAT OUR WEIGHT DOESN'T FLUCTUATE THAT MUCH IN THE SAME DAY. WE WERE TOLD IT TESTED FINE, SO IT WILL NOT NEED REPAIR. JUST THIS MORNING I GOT IN THE PASSENGER SIDE THE LIGHT WAS OFF, WE WENT INTO A STORE AND WHEN I GOT BACK IN THE CAR THE LIGHT WAS ON. I HAVE TOLD THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT THIS AGAIN TODAY. *TR

NOW THE BRAKES WILL GO TO THE FLOOR MORE WHEN BEING PRESSED AND THE VEHICLE WILL START ROLLING SO YOU HAVE TO PUSH HARDER ON THE BRAKES. JUST YESTERDAY THE MILEAGE THAT IS SUPPOSE TO BE MOVING WHILE DRIVING TO SHOW HOW MANY MPG YOU ARE GETTING WENT ALL THE WAY UP AND STAYED THERE THE WHOLE TIME I DROVE. THERE IS NO WAY I WAS GETTING LIKE 50 MILES PER GALLON GOING 45MPH. I TRY TO GET MY VEHICLE IN TO THE NISSAN DEALER WHERE I GOT IT FROM IN LAS CRUCES, NM AND I KEEP NOT GETTING ANSWERS OR MORE EXCUSED OF WHAT IS NOT WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE.

THE DAY AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON, EVEN THOUGH THE PERSON SITTING IN THE SEAT (5'9, 175LBS) WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT "PROPERLY". I BROUGHT THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE PERSON WASN'T SITTING IN THE SEAT CORRECTLY. AS SOON AS I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP, NOT EVEN A MILE AWAY, THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON WITHOUT ANYONE EVEN IN THE SEAT. I HAVE BEEN BACK TO MY DEALER AT LEAST 8 TIMES, I HAVE HAD THE SCALE CALIBRATED, A NEW SEAT PUT IN, THE RECALL FIXED, AND IT'S STILL COMING ON. MY DEALER RECOMMEND THAT IF THE LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING I SHOULD JUST PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, TURN THE CAR OFF, AND THEN RESTART IT. MOST RECENTLY I HAD THE CAR IN FOR REPAIR ON JULY 25TH, AND ON AUGUST 22ND, THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON.

PURCHASED A NEW 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER AND IMMEDIATELY ON THE DRIVE HOME NOTICED AN ISSUE WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. 1) THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG "OFF" LIGHT STAYS LIT WHEN AN INDIVIDUAL IS IN THE PASSENGER SIDE FOR THE DURATION OF THE RIDE. 2) THE SUPPLEMENTAL AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ON DASHBOARD STAYS FLASHING FOR THE DURATION OF THE RIDE. TOOK TO THE DEALERSHIP IN NORTH HAVEN, CT WHERE WE PURCHASED. THEIR DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT WE DID NOT ENTER THE CAR PROPERLY. WE NEEDED TO BOTH ENTER THE CAR, FASTEN OUR SEATBELTS, THEN TURN ON THE CAR FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG TO BE FUNCTIONAL. ENTERING THE VEHICLE AS ADVISED BY THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN DID IN FACT ALLOW THE PASSENGER AIRBAG "OFF" LIGHT TO BE TURNED OFF AND THE FLASHING WARNING ON THE DASHBOARD TO DISAPPEAR. I VIEW THIS AS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. THE PURPOSE OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR IS FOR IT TO BE OPERATIONAL WHEN WEIGHT IS APPLIED TO THE PASSENGER SEAT NOT FOR IT TO FUNCTION ONLY WHEN YOU FASTEN YOUR SEATBELT BEFORE STARTING THE VEHICLE. I SAID TO THE SERVICE MANAGER ?SO YOU ARE SAYING THAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL NOT OPERATE IF ANYONE ENTERS THE PASSENGER SIDE WHILE THE CAR IS RUNNING? WHAT ARE MOTHERS SUPPOSED TO DO WHEN THEY PICK UP THEIR CHILD IN AN IDLING VEHICLE?? HIS RESPONSE WAS ?I GUESS THEY WILL NEED TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, TURN THE CAR OFF, THEN TURN IT BACK ON FOR THE AIRBAG TO FUNCTION.? THE RECALL ON THE EARLY 2013 MODELS OF THE PATHFINDER SHOULD BE EXPANDED. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. *TR

WHEN A 100 POUND PERSON OCCUPIED THE SEAT, THE AIR BAG WOULD NOT RECOGNIZE THE WEIGHT HOWEVER, THE AIR BAG WOULD RECOGNIZE THE WEIGHT OF A 140 POUND PERSON. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER:13V069000(AIR BAGS), BUT THE REPAIR DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE CONTACT SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT FOR FURTHER INSPECTION. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN, BUT THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 4,866. UPDATE 4/7/14 VA THE CONSUMER BELIEVES THIS VEHICLE IS A LEMON IN ACCORDANCE TO THE MASSACHUSETTS CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT (MASSACHUSETTS GENERAL LAWS; C.90 SEC. 7N1/2). SINCE THE PURCHASE OF THE VEHICLE, IT HAS BEEN TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR FAILURE A TOTAL OF 7 TIMES. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN OUT OF SERVICE FOR REPAIRS FOR A TOTAL OF 45 BUSINESS DAYS. FAILURES ALSO INCLUDE REAR HATCH SCRAPED AGAINST THE BODY AND SPOILER CONTACTS THE ROOF WHEN OPENING/CLOSING, VEHICLE SHUDDERED AROUND 16 MILES PER HOUR, LOSS OF AIR FROM THE LEFT FRONT TIRE, DRIVER'S WINDOW WOULD NOT CLOSE, VEHICLE SHUDDERED BETWEEN 12 AND 20 MPH, AND THE CLIMATE CONTROL ON DRIVER'S SIDE NOT WORKING PROPERLY.

THE AIRBAG SENSOR INDICATOR HAS COME ON WITH AN ADULT OVER 150LBS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AND AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS. THE ADULT WAS SITTING CORRECTLY IN THE SEAT. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THREE TIMES. TOLD FIRST TIME THAT SINCE IT CAN'T BE DUPLICATED AT THE DEALERSHIP, THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING. NEXT I WAS GIVEN A COPY OF THE OWNER'S MANUAL. LAST TIME, I TALKED WITH THE DEALERSHIP MANAGER AND HE TOLD ME THAT THE SENSOR WOULD BE REPLACED. THE DAY I WAS TO TAKE IT IN, I RECEIVED A CALL THAT IT NEEDED TO BE INSPECTED BY A NISSAN CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN. I LET HIM LOOK AT IT AND WAS TOLD THAT NOTHING SHOWED UP WRONG AND THE SENSOR WOULD NOT BE REPLACED AND GIVEN ANOTHER COPY OF THE OWNER'S MANUAL. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED 1/9/2013 AND CLEARLY FALLS WITHIN THE MANUFACTURING DATE OF THE RECALL. I OR THE DEALER WERE NOT INFORMED. FIRST, NISSAN SHOULD EXPAND THE RECALL TO ENCOMPASS ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES AND SECOND NISSAN NEEDS TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM AFTER 3 ATTEMPTS FOR THE DEALER TO REPAIR. 1ST ATTEMPT: ZERO OUT SENSOR AND REPROGRAM. 2ND REPLACE SENSORS. 3RD INVESTIGATE PROBLEM WITH NISSAN TECH SERVICES AND THEY COULD NOT HELP. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I DON'T HAVE A LOT OF CONFIDENCE THAT THE AIR BAG WOULD WORK WHEN THE LIGHT IS OUT. *TR

THE VEHICLE DIDN'T ROLL EITHER. THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY DRIVEABLE OTHER THAN THE AIRBAG PROBLEM. NISSAN CLAIMS THE AIRBAGS ACTED PROPERLY AFTER THEY REVIEWED THE DATA RECORDER BUT TO ME THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN.

I HAVE BECOME AWARE OF TWO DIFFERENT ISSUES WITH MY 2013 PATHFINDER. FIRST, AND MOST IMPORTANT, IS AN ISSUE WITH THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. THE LIGHT THAT ILLUMINATES TO INFORM YOU IF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS ON OR OFF WILL COME ON OR OFF INTERMITTENTLY WITH THE SAME PERSON/OBJECT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON 4 SEPARATE OCCASIONS. IT HAPPENED TWICE WITH MYSELF RIDING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, ONCE WITH MY SON, AND ONCE WITH A BACKPACK. THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT WOULD BE OFF, INDICATING THE AIRBAG WAS ON, AND THEN AFTER SEVERAL MILES THE LIGHT WOULD COME ON. OR THE LIGHT WOULD BE ON AND AFTER SEVERAL MILES IT WOULD GO OFF. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND COULD CAUSE DEATH IF IN AN ACCIDENT! I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PUT ON THE COMPUTER, WHICH SHOWED EVERYTHING WAS FINE. THEY ALSO DROVE THE VEHICLE 20 MILES TO SEE IF THEY COULD GET IT TO HAPPEN AND IT DID NOT. MINE WAS NOT ONE OF THE MODELS ON THE RECALL LIST FOR THIS VERY SAME ISSUE. THEY TOLD ME TO BRING IT BACK IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN, BUT I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. WE ARE A FAMILY OF SEVEN, SO SOMEONE HAS TO SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THE SECOND ISSUE IS A SHUDDERING THAT OCCURS WHEN DECELERATING OR ACCELERATING AT LOWER SPEEDS. IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES CAUSING ME TO TAKE MY EYES OFF THE ROAD AND LOOK AT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL TO SEE IF SOMETHING IS WRONG. THE VEHICLE IS SLUGGISH WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I AM WORRIED THAT IT WILL HAPPEN TURNING INTO TRAFFIC AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *TR

I EXPLAINED AGAIN THAT THE AIR BAG OFF LIGHT WOULD STAY ON WHEN KIDS OR MY WIFE WOULD SEAT ON IT. THEY SAID "IT IS A KNOWN GLITCH" BUT THAT EVERYTHING WORKS FINE AND "I SHOULD NOT WORRY ABOUT IT." I CONTACTED NISSAN IMMEDIATELY. I SPOKE TO NISSAN COSTUMER AFFAIRS "WESLEY" WHO SAID THAT WOULD LOOK INTO THIS TO GET THE ISSUE RESOLVED. HE ALSO STATED THAT HE WOULD CONTACT THE WHITE PLAINS DEALER. SOUNDED GREAT. HE CALL ME ON 6/17/13 TO TELL ME THAT INDEED THE DEALER "DID EVERYTHING, THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO DO" AND SINCE THERE WAS NO RECALL ON MY VIN - THAN EVERYTHING WAS OK. THIS IS HYSTERICAL. I HAD ACTUALLY RECEIVED AN EMAIL DIRECTLY FROM NISSAN USA ON 6/15/13 STATING THAT "A REVIEW OF OUR RECORDS INDICATES THAT THE VEHICLE WITH THE VEHICLE SERIAL NUMBER LISTED ABOVE IS INVOLVED IN THE RECALL AS FOLLOWS: OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (OCS) SENSOR. PLEASE CONTACT YOUR NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE RECALL REPAIRS PERFORMED ON YOUR VEHICLE. THESE REPAIRS ARE FREE OF CHARGE TO YOU." HE FIRST SOUNDED CONFUSED BUT THEN HE PROCEEDED TO EXPLAIN (AS THE DEALERSHIP) THAT "IF SOMEONE BETWEEN 90 AND 120 POUNDS SIT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE - THE LIGHT WEIGHT MIGHT NOT TRIGGER THE SENSOR." I ASKED HIM WHERE I WOULD BE ABLE TO FIND THIS TECHNICAL INFORMATION IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL. HE SAID THAT IT WOULD NOT BE THERE. AND WHAT ABOUT THE RECALL LETTER? I ASKED HIM IF HE COULD PROVIDED AN OFFICIAL LETTER STATING THAT INDEED THE AIR BAG SENSOR LIGHT OFF IS NOT AN ISSUE AND/OR A SAFETY CONCERN. NATURALLY, HE REPLIED THAT HE COULD NOT PROVIDE SUCH A LETTER. END OF STORY, MY LAWYER-WIFE WILL NOW SEND A FORMAL LEGAL LETTER TO FILE A COMPLAIN WITH NISSAN. *TR

PURCHASED MY NEW 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER IN FEBRUARY, 2013. EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS ACCELERATING FROM A COMPLETE STOP AFTER THE FIRST 100 MILES I PUT ON THE CAR. I EXPERIENCED THE PROBLEM 4 TIMES IN THE FIRST 400 MILES. THEN I EXPERIENCED A MAJOR PROBLEM TURNING LEFT FROM A COMPLETE STOP. THE CAR BARELY COASTED THROUGH THE INTERSECTION. I HAD TO PUMP THE GAS PEDAL ABOUT 4 TIMES TO GET THE CAR MOVING. LUCKILY I WAS TURNING LEFT AT A GREEN ARROW SO THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC HAD A RED LIGHT AND WAS STOPPED. I ASKED THE DEALER TO PICK IT UP AS I DIDN'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT. THEY HAD IT A WEEK AND OPENED A TICKET WITH NISSAN. THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE AND HADN'T HEARD OF ANY OTHER SIMILAR ISSUES SO THEY ASKED ME TO PICK UP THE CAR. MY HUSBAND DROVE IT ON THE HIGHWAY FOR WORK (ABOUT 1200 MILES) AND NOTICED A LITTLE SLUGGISHNESS FROM A FULL STOP BUT NOT TOO BAD. I DROVE IT FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS AFTER THAT AND I NOTICED SOME MINOR SLUGGISHNESS. WHEN IT STALLED OUT AS I WAS TURNING LEFT THROUGH A 4 WAY STOP WITH NO ONCOMING TRAFFIC, I DECIDED TO TAKE IT BACK. HAD I BEEN TURNING LEFT AT A GREEN LIGHT WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC, THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A HIGH POTENTIAL FOR AN ACCIDENT WITH INJURIES TO MY CHILD IN THE BACK SEAT. THIS TIME I PROVIDED BLOGS TO THE DEALER DESCRIBING THE SAME ISSUES.THE DEALER CONFIRMED TODAY THAT THERE IS A KNOWN PROBLEM BUT NO FIX SO I SHOULD PICK UP THE CAR. IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN THEY TOLD ME TO PRESS HARDER ON THE GAS PEDAL. I TOLD THEM THAT WAS AN UNACCEPTABLE SOLUTION. I ASKED FOR AN UPGRADED RENTAL SINCE I'M NOW PAYING FOR A PATHFINDER BUT DRIVING A BASIC ROGUE THAT THEY "RENTED" TO ME. I AM CURRENTLY ESCALATING THE MATTER THROUGH NISSAN. I REFUSE TO TAKE THE CAR BACK AND PUT MY FAMILY IN DANGER OVER AN ISSUE THEY ADMIT TO BUT CAN'T RESOLVE. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED ISSUES WITH THE AIRBAG LIGHT THAT OTHERS HAVE REPORTED.

TOOK BACK TO DEALERSHIP THEY DID A "ZERO RESET" AND TOLD ME TO CONTACT THEM IF LIGHT COMES ON AGAIN. THEY ALSO HAD TO FIX A COUPLE OF MINOR COSMETIC ISSUES SO I ENDED UP WITH A RENTAL CAR FOR A FEW DAYS...A 2012 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHEN HUSBAND SAT IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT THAT AIRBAG LIGHT ALSO CAME ON. *TR

THE SENSOR FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG DOES NOT WORK. THE AIRBAGS ARE AUTOMATICALLY TURNED OFF EVEN WHEN THERE IS A FULL GROWN ADULT IN THE FRONT SEAT. ALSO, DURING ROUTINE OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE WHEN NO ONE IS SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, THE AIRBAG INDICATOR MAY SWITCH TO "ON." IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT, AN ADULT FRONT SEAT PASSENGER WILL NOT HAVE THE PROTECTION OF THE FRONT AIRBAG DUE TO A FAULTY SENSOR. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP IS CLAIMING THAT THERE IS NO RECALL ON THE AIRBAG SENSOR--EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE NEWS ARTICLES TO THE CONTRARY. NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE SAYS THERE IS NO RECALL UNDER MY VIN--EVEN THOUGH OTHER 2013 PATHFINDERS ARE THE SUBJECT OF A RECALL. (IN FACT, I ACCESSED THIS SITE FROM A NEWS ARTICLE DISCUSSING THE PROBLEM AND THE RECALL.) AND, BOTH THE DEALERSHIP AND NISSAN ARE CLAIMING THAT THE DEFECT MAY NOT BE COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY. AT PRESENT, THE CAR HAS LESS THAN TWO THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED (2500) MILES. *TR

ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER TAKING DELIVERY ON MY NEW 2013 PATHFINDER I NOTICED THE SRS SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT WOULD REMAIN ON, UNLESS BOTH FRONT AND PASSENGER SEAT BELTS WERE ENGAGED. ADDITIONALLY, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WARNING INDICATOR BEHAVES ERRATICALLY, OFTEN FAILING TO SHUT-OFF WITHIN 7 SECONDS OF VEHICLE START, AND REMAINING ON, EVEN WITH AN ADULT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I HAVE THUS-FAR MADE 3 TRIPS TO MY SERVICING DEALER, WHO HAS BEEN UNABLE TO RESOLVE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM ISSUE. ON MY SECOND SERVICE VISIT, THE DEALER SERVICE ADVISOR MENTIONED THAT NISSAN TECH SUPPORT HAD ADVISED HIM THAT THE ODS SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT MAY NOT HAVE BEEN CALIBRATED CORRECTLY, AT THE FACTORY. *TR

PASSENGER WEIGHING >120 LBS SITTING ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WHEN THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT "OFF" WAS LIT INDICATING THAT THE AIRBAG WAS TURNED OFF. THE LIGHT TURNED OFF AFTER ABOUT 5 MIN OF DRIVING BUT CAME ON AGAIN A FEW MINUTES LATER. *TR

AIR BAG SENSOR LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON. *TR

DRIVING HOME FROM THE DEALERSHIP THE NIGHT I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, AND I NOTICE THE SUPPLEMENTAL AIRBAG ICON FLASHING. (I DON'T RECALL SEEING IT DURING THE TEST DRIVE.) I DID NOT IMMEDIATELY RECOGNIZE THE ICON, SO WHEN I GOT HOME, I LOOKED IT UP IN THE MANUAL, AND IT TELLS ME THAT I MUST GET IT SERVICED AT THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP. REALLY? NOT EVEN 15 MINUTES AFTER DRIVING IT OFF THE LOT, AND I HAVE TO BRING IT BACK TO BE SERVICED??? NISSAN BETTER GET THEIR ACT TOGETHER. *TR

I PURCHASED MY BRAND NEW 2103 NISSAN PATHFINDER DECEMBER OF 2012. I NOTICED WITHIN THE FIRST COUPLE WEEKS THAT THE SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH WOULD NOT GO OUT IF I WAS THE ONLY PERSON IN THE VEHICLE AND I WAS BUCKED UP. SO I TOOK IT IN TO SERVICE IN EARLY JANUARY TO DEAL WITH A DEFECT IN THE LEATHER AND THEY SAID THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE LIGHT AND THAT WAS HOW IT WAS SUPPOSED TO WORK. SO EVERYTHING WAS FINE FOR ANOTHER MONTH WHEN THE CAR STARTED BLOWING SMOKE. SO I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE AGAIN AND THIS TIME A DIFFERENT DEALER RECOGNIZED THAT THAT WASN'T HOW THE CAR SHOULD BE WORKING SO HE SAID THEY WOULD TAKE CARE OF THE SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT. SO A COUPLE DAYS LATER AFTER PARTS WERE SENT OVERNIGHT THEY CALLED AND SAID THAT MY VEHICLE WAS READY FOR PICKUP. I PICKED THE PATHFINDER UP AND SURE ENOUGH THE SEAT BELT LIGHT WENT OFF WHEN I GOT IN BUT NOW I HAD AN AIRBAG FAILURE LIGHT ON THE DASH. SINCE IT WAS THE END OF THE DAY THEY ASKED ME TO BRING IT BACK IN THE NEXT DAY. SO AFTER ANOTHER VISIT TO NISSAN THEY HAD TO CALL THE TECH LINE BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO FIX THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. LONG STORY SHORT THEY SENT ME AWAY WITH MY BROKEN PATHFINDER BECAUSE APPARENTLY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE AND THE TECH LINE AT NISSAN HASN'T FIGURED OUT A REMEDY FOR THE PROBLEM. THIS WAS UNACCEPTABLE SO I TOOK MY VEHICLE AND I CALLED CONSUMER AFFAIRS TO LET THEM KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. THE AGREED THAT THIS WAS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE BUT NOW MONTHS LATER AND I CAN'T EVEN GET A CALL BACK FROM THEIR CONSUMER AFFAIRS. THIS VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE AND UNTIL NISSAN CAN WORK OUT ALL OF THE "BUGGS" EVERYONE SHOULD STAY AWAY FROM THIS VEHICLE. *TR

I HAVE BEEN HAVING ONGOING ISSUES WITH MY PATHFINDER SINCE PURCHASE WITH THE PASSENGER AIRBAG NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. INITIALLY IT WOULD NOT DETECT ANYBODY WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND THE DEALER TRY TO RESET THE SENSOR SEVERAL TIMES WITH NO SUCCESS. NOW ALL AIRBAG WARNING LIGHTS ARE ON AND PER THE OWNERS MANUAL THE VEHICLE SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN. I WAS TOLD IN JAN PARTS WERE ORDERED TO FIX THIS ISSUE AND THEY ARE STILL NOT IN. NEEDLESS TO SAY I AM VERY VERY UPSET AND WILL BE LOOKING INTO LEGAL ACTIONS. *TR

SINCE WE TOOK POSSESSION OF THE VEHICLE, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT WOULD BE ILLUMINATED WHEN VARIOUS ADULT SIZE PEOPLE WILL BE SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THE WEIGHTS OF THE ADULTS SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WOULD VARY FROM 110 AND UP TO 139 AND STILL THE LIGHT WOULD STAY ON, INDICATING THAT THE AIRBAG IS OFF\DISABLED. WE EVEN TRIED HAVING A SALESPERSON (UNKNOWN WEIGHT) SIT IN THE CAR AND STILL THE LIGHT WOULD STAY ON. *TR

PURCHASED A NEW 2013 PATHFINDER AND THE 1ST TRIP WE TOOK WITH A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT WE NOTICED THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON INDICATING IT WAS NOT ACTIVATED. I THOUGHT THAT WAS WEIRD, BUT DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT. FEW WEEKS WENT BY AND ISSUE WAS STILL OCCURRING SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY DID A RESET OF THE SEAT SENSOR AND IT SEEMED TO BE WORKING PROPERLY FOR APPROX 2 WEEKS. ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN, DEALER RESET AND IT APPEARED TO WORKED OK FOR A FEW DAYS. DEALER WAS NOW TOLD THE SEAT BASE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BUT THERE IS A NATIONAL BACK ORDER ON THE PART DUE TO THIS ISSUE. NEEDLESS TO SAY I WILL NOT ALLOW ANYBODY TO RIDE AS A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT UNTIL THIS IS RESOLVED. I AM NOT HAPPY ABOUT THIS SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AT ALL. *TR

BASE ON MANUAL, THE "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" SIGN WILL BE LIGHT ON (IT MEANS THAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL DISABLE) IF A CHILD OR ADULT (LESS THAN 70 POUNDS) SEAT AT THE PASSENGER FRONT SEAT. BUT FOR MY 2013 PATHFINDER, MY 9 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WHO WEIGHT ABOUT 50 POUNDS SITED AT THE FRONT SEAT (PASSENGER SIDE) AND WEARING SEAT BELT, BUT THE "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" SIGN IS OFF (IT MEAN THE AIR BAG STILL ENGAGE ). AS THE RESULT, MY DAUGHTER WILL BE IN DANGER DUE TO AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT IF ACCIDENT HAPPEN. *TR
