2009 NISSAN ROGUE Air Bags Problems

The dashboard airbag light is blinking and will not shut off. I have tried to reset it and it goes off but comes right back on. I have took it to an auto part shop for a diagnostic reading and no code comes up. I see on the internet where nissan has recalled 2008 and 2010 Rogue for this problem but not the 2009.

The passenger side Air Bag indicator has been on since 2019, was not aware I could report it here. I have not taken it to a Dealership because I can't afford to have it fixed. In 2018, I had to replace the CV joint and front rocker arms. A piece was cracked, and when I would turn I would hear a loud POP & TICKING sound from the front passenger side tire area. Again I paid over 1500.00 to have it repaired, I no longer have the photographs or the actual parts.

The passenger side airbag indicator light flashes continually on the dash and stays illuminated on the console. This same issue was recalled for the 2008 and 2010 Nissan Rogues but for some reason not the 2009. My vehicle only has 62,000 miles on it currently and this is a safety issue.

A vehicle was purchased from Pristine Auto Sales in Hopkinsville, KY. Following the purchase, the vehicle was inspected by a licensed mechanic and he reported the following, "I/We ("Licensed Mechanic Shop") inspected "Owner's" 2009 Nissan Rogue vin# XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX today due to her hearing grinding when applying her brake to stop and the vehicle is pulling to the left when applying the brake to stop. I also noticed the airbag light is on as well. Upon inspection the brake pads, the pads in the rear of the vehicle are metal to metal (on the inside) and the front pads are 1mm thick. According to NHTSA vehicles should not be on the road or even be sold from a dealer with brake pads any thinner than 3mm. It is a MAJOR safety concern as it will cause an accident. Also, after inspecting why the airbag light was on, it is found that one or more of the occupant sensors are defective and therefor causing the airbag system to be disabled. In the event of an accident the airbag system will not work. It is also against NHTSA for a vehicle to be sold with a defective Safety system such as Airbag system." The issues were present upon purchase. The purchaser is not knowledgeable about vehicles. Given that the vehicle was sold with the safety concerns already present, it appears that this auto sale business is not in compliance with NHTSA and mechanic has spoken with the business and they were unwilling to cooperate to ensure repairs were made on vehicle.

The contact owns a 2009 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the air bag warning light illuminated, and the "Passenger Air Bag Off" warning message was displayed. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and diagnosed with occupant sensor unit failure. The front passenger seat and the occupant sensor unit needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer, Nissan of Melbourne (440 S Harbor City Blvd, Melbourne, FL 32901) and Mike Erdman Nissan (4640 FL-520, Cocoa, FL 32926) were made aware of the failure and informed the contact to bring the vehicle in for diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was opened. The manufacturer referred the contact to file a complaint with NHTSA. The failure mileage was approximately 126,000. Consumer called 3 different Nissan dealers in our local area (Pat Fischer Nissan, Nissan of Melbourne, and Mike Erdman Nissan) and they concurred you cannot just buy the sensor, you must order the seat which contains the sensor (seat part #873A2JM30B). The list price is $1,630.45—even with Nissan dealer installation, the seat must be ordered and paid for in advance and is not returnable as it is part of the Air Bag System. The labor cost is approximately $230-$250 when you add in additional shop fees and taxes, the total repair cost is in the $2,000 range.

The contact owns a 2009 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the air bag warning light was flashing on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer where it was diagnosed with the occupant classification system sensor needing to be replaced in the passenger’s side seat cushion. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact was relating the failure to an unknown recall. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure and informed the contact that the Vin was not under recall. The failure mileage was approximately 84,200.

THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR BECAUSE OF AN AIR BAG SEAT FAULT IN THE 2009 ROGUE CARS. THE 2008 AND 2010 ROGUE MODELS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM BUT A RECALL WAS ENFORCED ON IT. NISSAN ADMITTED THE 2009 SEAT SENSOR WAS MADE BY THE SAME COMPANY BUT IT WAS A VIN PROBLEM. FOUND ON YOUR SITE AFFECTED VIN NUMBERS ALL START WITH JN8AS58 INCLUDING MINE. WE ARE ALL HAVING THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM OF THE AIR BAGS BEING SHUT OFF AUTOMATICALLY. NISSAN WANTS 2000 DOLLARS TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM ALSO PASSES THE SAFETY PART OF A NYS VEHICLE INSPECTION. I THOUGH AIR BAGS WERE PUT IN THE CAR TO SAVE LIVES, BUT IS NOT CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE THEM NOT DEPLOYING. PLEASE PUSH FOR A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE DIES.

THE SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT HAS BEEN FLASHING FOR OVER FOUR YEARS AND YOU WOULD THINK THAT THERE WOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS SINCE IT JUST CAME ON BY ITSELF WITHOUT WARNING.

AS OF YESTERDAY (9/3/2020) MY 2009 NISSAN ROGUE WITH 101,000 MILES HAS HER PASSENGER SIDE, AIRBAG LIGHT FLASHING ON THE DASH AND THE CONSOLE AIRBAG LIGHT ON. MY RESEARCH SHOWS THE AIRBAG SENSOR TO HAVE BEEN A RECALL ON '08 AND '10 ROGUES, BUT NOT '09. (THE TSB NO. IS 08-095D.) THIS MAKES ZERO SENSE TO ME, IT IS AN EXTREME DANGER TO ME AND MY FAMILY, AND UNACCEPTABLE. WHEN THE LIGHT CAME ON THE CAR HAD BEEN PARKED FOR ABOUT 1 HOUR, PRIOR IT HAD BEEN DRIVEN ABOUT 8 MILES FROM ITS PARKING SPOT. IT HAS SINCE BEEN PARKED AND TURNED ON AGAIN AFTER 12 HRS, LIGHTS ARE STILL ON AND BLINKING ON THE DASH. PLEASE RECALL THIS VEHICLE FOR RECALL OF THIS FAULTY EQUIPMENT.

AIRBAGS PASSENGER WONT WORK BECAUSE OF FAULTY SENSOR IN PASSENGER SEAT.

THE AIRBAG SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE IN THE 2009 NISSAN ROGUE JUST LIKE THE 2008 AND 2010 ROGUE. THE AIRBAG WEIGHT SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT STAYS ON DISABLING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG TO WHOM EVEN SITS THERE. IT ALSO LEAVES A FLASHING AIRBAG LIGHT IN THE DASHBOARD. NISSAN IS WARE OF THE PROBLEM AND MAKES YOU PAY THEM TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AT AN HOURLY RATE THEN CHARGE YOU OVER $2000 TO REPLACE THE SEAT LIKE THEY DID FOR THE 2008 AND 2010 MODELS IN A RECALL. THE PARTS ARE THE SAME IN THE 2009 MODEL. *TR

AIR BAG FAILURE - THE AIRBAG SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT FAILED WHICH CAUSED THE ENTIRE AIRBAG SYSTEM TO NOT WORK (AS NOTED BY THE FLASHING AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE DASH AS WELL AS THE SECONDARY AIRBAG LIGHT CONSTANTLY ON NEAR THE GEAR SHIFTER). THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND CONCERN. THIS PARTICULAR YEAR OF THE NISSAN ROGUE WAS NOT PART OF A RECALL (2008 AND 2010 WERE INCLUDED IN A RECALL FOR THE EXACT SAME ISSUE). AS A RESULT, IN ORDER FOR THE AIRBAG SYSTEM TO WORK AND TO REMAIN SAFE IN THE CAR WHEN DRIVING, IT REQUIRES A NEW PASSENGER SEAT CUSHION. THIS REPAIR COSTS GREATER THAN $2000 (PART AND LABOR).

MY 2009 NISSAN ROGUE IS PULLING A CODE FOR THE OCCUPANCY-CLASSIFICATION SENSOR FAIL. THIS IS THE SAME FAIL THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED ON SEVERAL NISSAN MODELS. THE FIX, I'M TOLD IS A NEW SEAT. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY EXCESSIVE AND NOT REASONABLE GIVEN THE HISTORY OF NISSAN AND THE OCS SENSOR FAILURES ON THEIR VEHICLES.

TAKATA RECALL THE AIR BAG DEVICE SIGNAL KEEP BLINKING THIS "TAKATA AIR BAG IS WHAT"S HAPPENING TO MY CAR AS WELL. THIS IS SAID TO BE VERY DANGEROUS. I NEED TO BE SAFE WHILE DRIVING THIS CAR.

PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AFTER MY 8 YEAR OLD WAS SEATING IN THE FRONT SEAT WHILE CAR WAS PARKED. SCAN CODE B1018 OCCUPANT SENSOR MALFUNCTIONED. CALLED NISSAN WHICH NOTED THAT ITS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE 2008 ROGUE MODELS AND STILL HAS A RECALL CAMPAIGN FOR THAT YEAR BUT MY 2009 MODEL IS NOT INCLUDED. BUT IRONICALLY THE SAME EXACT ISSUE EXIST WITH BOTH MODEL AND FIXING THE ISSUE WILL COST ME $1000.

MY AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT BLINKING ALL THE TIME, WHEN I TOOK TO THE DEALER THEY ADVICE ME TO REPLACE AIR BAG AND SENSORS IT COST MORE THAN $2000.00. A FUEL GAUGE LIGHT ON DASH BOARD IS DROPPED WHEN IT'S FULL TANK.

STARTED THE VEHICLE ONE DAY AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD WAS ON. THE PASSENGER AIRBAG INDICATOR WAS ALSO ON, WHICH INDICATES THAT SAID AIRBAG IS DISABLED BUT THERE WAS NO ONE IN THE SEAT. LOOKING UP THE DASHBOARD'S AIRBAG LIGHT FLASHING SEQUENCE IN THE SERVICE MANUAL (ONE LONG BLINK FOLLOWED BY FIVE QUICK BLINKS), THE PROBLEM STEMS FROM THE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM SENSOR THAT IS EMBEDDED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT BUCKET. RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS IS A SAFETY COMPONENT WHICH HAS BEEN IN OTHER SERVICE BULLETINS FOR VARIOUS NISSAN VEHICLES. FOR THE ROGUE, THE RECALL CAMPAIGN BULLETIN NTB-095D COVERS THIS EXACT ISSUE BUT ONLY FOR 2008 UNITS. FORUM POSTS BY OWNERS APPEAR TO INDICATE THAT MANY OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE FOR VEHICLES NOT COVERED IN SAID BULLETIN. THE COST TO REPLACE THE SEAT IS AROUND $2,000, SINCE NISSAN CAN NOT REPLACE THE SENSOR ITSELF. THIS IS COST PROHIBITIVE CONSIDERING THAT THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. IT PRESENTS FAILURE ON THE VEHICLE'S SAFETY SYSTEM, WHICH CONTRARY TO MECHANICAL SYSTEMS IS SUBJECT TO MINIMAL WEAR (IF ANY), SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCING THE VEHICLES USABILITY UNLESS THE OWNER IS WILLING TO TAKE THE UNNECESSARY RISK OF USING IT IN THE MEAN TIME.

Mileage: 127,000

MY AIRBAG PASSENGER SIDE LIGHT ON THE DASH AND ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE VEHICLE CAME ON AT 100,000. THIS MADE ME RESEARCH RECALLS. I CAN NOT BELIEVE ALL THE RECALLS FOR THIS PROBLEM EXCEPT FOR 2009. EVEN THOUGH THE CAR WAS BUILT IN 2008. I GUESS WE ARE GOING TO WAIT UNTIL PEOPLE DIE UNTIL THIS WILL BE DONE. WE ARE TO PAY FOR IT WHEN THIS WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM. I REALLY LIKE MY NISSAN BUT I CAN NOT PUT MY FAMILY AT RISK OF BEING HURT OR EVEN KILLED. I WILL NOT REPURCHASE A NISSAN AGAIN. I GUESS IT IS CHEAPER TO NOT FIX IT THAN TO PAY OUT SETTLEMENTS. THE VEHICLE WAS NEVER IN AN ACCIDENT. OR HIT A BIG BUMP.

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG INDICATES "OFF" EVEN WHEN AN ADULT IS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CONSTANTLY FLASHING IN DASH. THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ONE IN THIS MODEL YEAR VEHICLE AND SHOULD BE REPAIRED UNDER SAFETY RECALL THROUGH THE DEALERSHIP.

MY 2009 NISSAN ROGUE HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. OUT OF NOWHERE MY PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT STARTED TO FLASH, I BROUGHT IT IN TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC WHO SAID THAT IT WAS THE AIRBAG SENSOR UNDERNEATH THE PASSENGER SEAT AND THAT HE WAS UNABLE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT AS IT TAKES CERTAIN PROGRAMMING TO MAKE THE AIRBAGS WORK APPROPRIATELY. I THEN BROUGHT MY CAR IN TO A NISSAN DEALER WHERE THEY TOLD ME IT WOULD BE $200 TO HOOK THEIR MACHINE US TO READ THE CODE TO EVEN BEGIN THE DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS I'VE BEEN TOLD THEM THAT THIS IS REPORTED ON LINE TIME AFTER TIME AGAIN SPECIFICALLY ON THE 2008 AND 2009 MODELS AND I DON'T FEEL I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THEM TO HOOK UP A MACHINE TO READ THE DIAGNOSTIC CODE IN WHICH I HAD IN MY HAND. AFTER DOING MORE RESEARCH ONLINE I HAVE HAD NUMBERS BETWEEN $300 AND $2,000 BE QUOTED FOR THIS PART TO FIX THE ISSUE AND ACCORDING TO MOST OF THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE SAID THEY PAID TO HAVE IT FIXED AT SOME POINT THEY CAME BACK AND REISSUED NEW COMPLAINTS ON THE SAME FORM THAT IT DOES HAPPEN OVER AND OVER AGAIN. HOW IS NISSAN NOT FIXING AN ISSUE THAT MAKES THEIR AIRBAGS DISFUNCTIONAL AND NOT DEPLOY? I GUESS IT TAKES SOME DEATH AND A LAWSUIT BEFORE IT WILL GET DONE. *TR

I HAVE NOTICED THAT THIS A KNOW ISSUE WITH THE 2008 NISSAN ROUGE. THE AIRBAG SENSOR IN NOT WORKING AND THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY, SINCE AN ACCIDENT OCCURRED.

I AM WRITING TO ALERT THE NHTSA TO A POSSIBLE DEFECT IN NISSAN'S AIRBAG CONTROL SYSTEM FOR THIS VEHICLE AND TO REGISTER MY DISSATISFACTION WITH HOW NISSAN NORTH AMERICA RESPONDED TO MY REQUEST FOR A REMEDY. I PURCHASED THIS 2009 NISSAN ROGUE AWD AT AUCTION ON 3 JULY 2013. NISSAN'S LEASING ARM WAS THE PREVIOUS OWNER. I NOTICED FROM THE OUTSET THAT THE LIGHT INDICATING THE STATUS OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SOMETIMES SHOWED INACTIVE, EVEN WHEN AN ADULT WEIGHING OVER 50KG WAS SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM WAS INTERMITTENT, AND BROWN'S FAIRFAX NISSAN WAS NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE THE CONDITION WHEN I TOOK THE VEHICLE FOR A CHECK ON 13 JULY 2013. THE PROBLEM IS OCCURRING MORE FREQUENTLY OF LATE, AND NOW THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG OCCASIONALLY SHOWS THAT IT IS ACTIVE, EVEN WHEN THERE IS NOTHING ON THE PASSENGER SEAT. BROWN'S WANTED $128 TO "DIAGNOSE" THE PROBLEM BUT, SINCE IT REMAINED INTERMITTENT, WAS NOT SURE ANYTHING WOULD COME OF THE DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE. AT ABOUT THIS TIME, I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR AN ECM PROBLEM (BY THE WAY, THE VEHICLE INITIALLY FAILED EMISSIONS INSPECTION IN JULY OF 2013 WHEN I TOOK IT TO MY REGULAR SERVICE STATION, BUT BROWN'S WAS ABLE TO GET A "PASS" READING). I ASKED NISSAN NORTH AMERICA TO AUTHORIZE BROWN'S TO CONDUCT A DIAGNOSIS OF THE PASSENGER-SIDE AIRBAG PROBLEM AT THE TIME OF THE ECM REPAIR. NISSAN REFUSED. BECAUSE THIS PROBLEM REMAINS INTERMITTENT, I AM UNSURE HOW TO PROCEED. I DO NOT WISH TO PAY $128 SEVERAL TIMES FOR REPEATED "DIAGNOSIS", BUT CLEARLY SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. I AM SUBMITTING THIS COMPLAINT IN CASE OTHER INSTANCES OF THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM WITH NISSAN VEHICLES MIGHT HAVE BEEN RECORDED. FOR NOW AND UNTIL THE PROBLEM BECOMES CONSISTENT, I WILL NOT CARRY FRONT-SEAT PASSENGERS. *TR

THE ELECTRICAL AIR BAG SENSORS FOR THE PASSENGER SEAT HAVE BECOME DYSFUNCTIONAL. THE AIR BAG LIGHT INDICATOR CONTINUALLY FLASHES ON THE DASHBOARD AND THE SPECIFIC AIR BAG PASSENGER LIGHT STAYS ON. I TOOK THE CAR IN FOR REPAIR AND THE DEALERSHIP CLEARED A CODE ASSOCIATED WITH THE AIR BAGS SENSORS. THE AIR BAG LIGHTS FUNCTIONED NORMALLY FOR ONLY A COUPLE OF DAYS AND THEN RETURNED BACK TO FLASHING AND/OR STAYING ON CONTINUOUSLY. I WAS ADVISED THAT THE SENSORS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT ARE NOT WORKING AND THAT IT WILL COST $2,500 TO REPAIR. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON 2008 NISSAN ROGUE AIR BAG SYSTEMS BUT APPARENTLY THERE IS NOT A RECALL ON THE 2009 MODELS. I AM NOT PAYING $2,500 TO REPAIR SENSORS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS SEEMS TO BE A MALFUNCTION OF THE PRODUCT THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY THE MANUFACTURER. *TR

I HAVE A 2009 NISSAN ROGUE. BOUGHT IT USED FROM YEAR, AT ABOUT 55000-60000 MILES THE AIR BAG LIGHT STARTS TO FLASH WITH NO INCIDENT BEFORE. I WENT TO THE DEALER HE FOUND A B1018 CODE AND SAYS MY FRONT SEAT SENSOR IS NO GOOD. NEEDS TO REPLACE THE FRONT SEAT ASSEMBLY, AND WANTS 3000$ FOR THAT. I LOOKED IN THE WEB AND SAW THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH THE ROGUE. AND THEY HAD SOME RECALLS BECAUSE OF THAT. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THEY COULD LOCATE ALL THE BAD SENSORS THE USED SO PROBABLY I GOT A BAD SENSOR TO START WITH. DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW WITH THE CAR. ANY SUGGESTIONS? HELP? I THINK NISSAN SHOULD BARE THE COST OF THIS PROBLEM. *TR

WE WERE ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE THE PROPELLER SHAFT TO THE REAR WHEELS AS THE UNIVERSAL JOINTS HAD WORN OUT AND THE PROPELLER SHAFT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS UP IN THE AIR ON A HOIST.THE IGNITION WAS IN THE OFF POSITION, FRONT & REAR BOLTS TO PROPELLER SHAFT WERE REMOVED, ONE OF THE TWO BOLTS FOR THE MID-SHIP MOUNT WAS OUT. OUR TECHNICIAN THEN HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A FIRECRACKER GO OFF. WHAT WE FOUND WAS THAT THE SIDE AIR BAGS HAD DEPLOYED! WE THEN ACCESSED THE FAULT CODES IN THE SRS SYSTEM AND FOUND THE FOLLOWING. B1211 ROLLOVER DETECTION, B1081 & B1086 PRETENSIONER RT FT & LT FT (OPEN),B1145 & B1150 CURTAIN MODULE (OPEN), B1177 FT RT SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER, & B1018 OCCUPANT SENSOR (UNIT FAIL). WHEN WE CHECKED WITH THE NISSAN DEALER IN KALAMAZOO, THEY SENT US A TSB, DATED 01/27/2014 # NTB08-055C WHICH ADDRESSES PROBLEMS NISSAN IS HAVING WITH ALL VEHICLES!! WE HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS INSTANCES OF THIS HAPPENING TO OWNERS OF NISSAN'S. WE WERE USING NO POWER TOOLS ON THE VEHICLE WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I FEEL THAT THESE BAGS ARE DEPLOYING ON PEOPLE AND CAUSING ACCIDENTS NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND. THESE VEHICLES NEED TO BE RECALLED. WE HAVE SAVED THE PARTS THAT WERE REPLACED TO GET THE VEHICLE REPAIRED, FOR YOUR INSPECTION. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS FROM NISSAN OWNERS, ON LINE, THAT THE SIDE AIR CURTAINS HAVE DEPLOYED, AT STOP LIGHTS, WHEN SHUTTING DOORS, DRIVING OUT DRIVEWAYS ETC.

SO SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE BRAND NEW THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WOULD DEACTIVATE WHEN SAT IN. AS WAS THIS A VERY INTERMITTENT PROBLEM AND WOULD NOT DO IT WHEN WE HAD TIME TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALER THE CAR NOW HAS 30,000 MILES ON IT AND NOW WHEN NOBODY IS SITTING IN THE SEAT THE AIR BAG STAYS ON AT ALL TIME, AND WHEN SAT IN IT DEACTIVATES. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AT 29,000 MILES AND THEY SAID DUE TO THE AGE IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND IT WOULD COST A LOT OF MONEY TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE SEAT CUSHION. THEY SAW I HAD MY IPHONE ON THE SEAT AND SAID THAT IS PROBABLY THE REASON FOR THE FAILURE. OK SO A PRESSURE SWITCH IS HURT BY A PHONE? I SEE THERE WAS A RECALL FOR 2008 UNITS AND WONDER IF THIS SHOULD APPLY TO 2009 AS WELL AS THIS AIR BAG NOT DEPLOYING MY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY. IT IS NOW MAY 2013 AND THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN NOW VERIFIED BY THE DEALER AND UNDER 36000 MILE WARRANTY, WHY IS THERE NOT A LONGER WARRANTY ON SUCH A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE? *TR

I AM 5'1" AND APPROX 105 LBS. WHEN I OR A FRIEND (UNDER 110 LBS) SITS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF LIGHT GOES ON. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE. LAST TIME THEY REPLACED THE SEAT AND AIRBAG SENSOR. THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. I TOOK IT IN AGAIN TODAY AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOTHING MECHANICALLY WRONG/MALFUNCTIONING JUST THAT THE SEAT AND SENSORS ARE DESIGNED TO TURN THE AIRBAG OFF IF AN ADULT WEIGHS UNDER 110 LBS. IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT, IF I OR A FRIEND (WHO ISUNDER 110 LBS) IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WE WILL NOT BE PROTECTED BY THE AIRBAG. I AM FRUSTRATED. WHY WAS I LEASED A VEHICLE THAT IS NOT SAFE?
