TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ROBBINS NISSAN (281-446-3181, LOCATED AT 18711 HIGHWAY 59 N, HUMBLE, TX 77338) WHERE THE AIR BAG SYSTEM WAS UPDATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SAME DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 81,000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.

PASSENGER OCCUPANT SENSOR FAILED AFTER BEING REPLACED, AIRBAG STAYS OFF WHILE PASSENGER IN SEAT. SEAT BELT LIGHT STAYS ON WHILE SEAT IS IN OCCUPIED.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR AS AN USED VEHICLE. THE CARFAX REPORT SHOWED A MINOR INCIDENT ON THE FRONT, BUT AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THERE IS AN AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD WHICH CONTINUES TO GLOW WHEN I RUN THE VEHICLE. I ASKED MY SERVICE ADVISOR IN "NISSAN OF OMAHA" TO LOOK INTO THE ISSUE. HE REPLIED THE AIRBAG MODULE HAS TO BE REPLACED COMPLETELY AND IT WOULD COST ME $2300. I DOUBT IF THIS IS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND THE SERVICE DEALER IS TRYING TO CHARGE ME FOR THE DEFECTIVE PART.

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON ITS THE SUBMENTAL AIRBAG LIGHT.

MY VEHICLE HASN'T BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS AND THE AIRBAG LIGHTS WILL COME ON AND GO SOLID AND STAY ON THEN SOMETIMES GO OFF AND THEN COME BACK ON??? I'VE BEEN READING THAT THE OCS SYSTEM COULD BE FAULTY!! THE PASSENGER ONE WILL SOMETIMES STAY ON WHEN PEOPLE ARE SITTING IN THE SEATS OR IT WILL GO OFF WHEN NO ONE IS THERE??

I WAS TOLD THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN IN A CRASH, YET DISCOVERED THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON UPON FURTHER INSPECTION (AFTER PURCHASE). I KNOW SIMILAR MODEL YEARS HAD AIRBAG RECALLS. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT IF I WERE TO CRASH THE SRS SYSTEM AND THE AIRBAGS WOULD NOT DEPLOY. HOW CAN A DEALER SELL YOU A VEHICLE THAT ISN'T SAFE TO OPERATE? I JUST WANT TO ENSURE THERE ISN'T A KNOWN PROBLEM BEFORE I SPEND HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS JUST TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF OPERATING MY VEHICLE; EVEN THOUGH IT SHOULD HAVE CAME THAT WAY. ALSO, INTERMITTENTLY THE SEATBELT LIGHT WILL COME ON EVEN WHEN I AM BUCKLED UP.

NOT SURE IF IT INCLUDES TAKATA RECALL. MY 2016 NISSAN ALTIMA WAS IN A ACCIDENT ON JUNE 19TH 2019 THE CAR WENT TO A FENCE A PALM TREE AND A STRUCTURE OF THE HOUSE INSIDE OF THE HOUSE AND NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. AND THE FIRST TIME BUYER I AM MARRIED WITH A CHILD AND THANK GOD MY CHILD WAS NOT IN THE CAR BECAUSE NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED CAR SEAT IS DEEMED UNUSABLE AND THE STROLLER AS WELL THAT WAS IN THE TRUNK DUE TO THE ACCIDENT THE CAR WAS TOTALED. THE INSURANCE THE TOW COMPANIES THE POLICE DEEMED IT A TOTAL LOSS AND WE'RE SHOCKED THAT WE WERE ALIVE AND WALKING DUE TO NO DEPLOYMENT OF AIRBAGS CAR SWERVED AND WENT INTO A HOUSE. I SUFFER FROM HEADACHES AND NECK AND NECK INJURY AND AT THE MASSAGE PARLORS GETTING MASSAGE OUT THREE TO FOUR TIMES A WEEK. I'M JUST ADD AN OZ BECAUSE THE AIRBAGS NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED NONE AND IT WENT THROUGH A HOUSE AGAIN THIS WAS MY FIRST CAR I ONLY HAD IT TWO MONTHS SO BUYING IT FROM A DEALERSHIP YOU WOULD THINK THAT THERE WOULD BE NO RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE OR THEY WOULD HAVE TOOK CARE OF THE RECALLS NOW I'M OUT ON VEHICLE NOT BECAUSE OF THE AIRBAGS BUT DUE TO THE ACCIDENT AND ALSO I'M IN PAIN WHICH IS DO I BELIEVE TO THE AIRBAGS NOT DEPLOYING

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT KEEPS POPPING UP ON MY DASHBOARD. I HAVE GOTTEN THE PROBLEM FIXED THREE(3) TIMES, ONCE WITH A NISSAN DEALERSHIP, AND IT STILL KEEPS COMING ON AFTER 2 MONTHS OF DRIVING.

NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE AND DEALER STATED THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO AND THE AIRBAG IS NOT ISSUE. LITHIA NISSAN OF FRESNO, DEALER EXPLANATION WAS THE PASSENGER WAS NOT SITTING CORRECTLY. LOOKING TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE IS HAVING THIS ISSUE. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS IN NEW CONDITION.

HUSBAND WAS IN AN ACCIDENT IN JUNE. STOPPED AT A REDLIGHT ON THE CITY STREET GOING NORTH, WHEN HE WAS HIT FROM BEHIND. THE REAR END ENDED UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CAR.

DRIVER SIDE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AT TIME OF ACCIDENT. NEITHER STEERING WHEEL NOR SIDE AIRBAGS. DRIVER, MYSELF, WAS GOING WITH FLOW OF TRAFFIC (40-44 MPH) ON CITY STREET ON THE 2ND LANE AT 5:30 PM AT TIME OF ACCIDENT.

RECALL 16V244000 AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON WITH MY WIFE IN PASS SEAT ~ 50% OF TIME. BROUGHT TO DEALER THREE TIMES BUT NOT FIXED. NISSAN CS NO ASSISTANCE TO FIX. WORKS OK IN OTHER VEHICLES WHEN SHE IS IN PASS SEAT.

AIRBAG SENSOR IS ACCORDING TO THE NISSAN DEALER ONLY ACTIVATING THE AIRBAG IF THE PASSENGER IS OVER 120LBS. MY WIFE IS UNDER THIS WEIGHT AND THE AIRBAG OFF LIGHT IS ON EVERY TIME WE DRIVE SOMEWHERE. NISSAN HAS TRIED TO PLAY IT OFF SAYING IT'S ACTUALLY SAFER FOR AN ADULT UNDER 120LBS TO HAVE THE AIRBAG OFF. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE AND I DO NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM IN MY VW OR MY MAZDA.
