TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 NISSAN SENTRA. WHILE THE PASSENGER SEAT WAS OCCUPIED BY AN ADULT, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED CONTINUOUSLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED TWO TIMES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 NISSAN SENTRA. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V242000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART FOR THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE.

PASSENGER FRONT AIRBAG LIGHT DOES NOT GO OFF (INDICATING AIRBAG IS ON) WHEN PASSENGER SITS IN SEAT. THIS IS INTERMITTENT PROBLEM AS IT WILL SOMETIMES GO OFF AND SOMETIMES NOT. MULTIPLE TRIPS TO DEALER AND CALLS TO NISSAN CUSTOMER RELATIONS HAVE NOT RESOLVED ISSUE. WERE TOLD ON LAST CONTACT NOTHING COULD BE DONE. PASSENGER WEIGHS 118 LBS. AND THIS IS NOT A PROBLEM WHEN SHE RIDES IN OTHER VEHICLES, I.E. HYUNDAI SANTA FE AND SUBARU OUTBACK. CASE #24255363 WITH CUSTOMER RELATIONS. BYERELY FORD-NISSAN, LOUISVILLE, KY IS DEALER. IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE SHOULD THE AIRBAG FAIL TO OPERATE.

MY PASSENGER AIRBAG "ON/OFF" LIGHT ON THE CENTER CONSOLE LIGHTS (MEANING PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF) AT COMPLETELY RANDOM TIMES WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION. THE LIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT ANY SPEED AND CONDITION WITHOUT A PASSENGER IN THE SEAT OR OTHER TIMES WITH A PASSENGER IN THE SEAT. CONDITIONS INCLUDE GRAVEL ROADS, HIGHWAY, STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, NORMAL CITY DRIVING, EVEN PARKING LOT DRIVING. I HAVE PHOTOS AND VIDEOS DOCUMENTED FOR BOTH SCENARIOS. MY WIFE IS VERY WORRIED WHEN SHE IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WHILE WERE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND SUDDENLY HER AIRBAG SAYS IT HAS TURNED OFF. I HAVE INCLUDED A CELL PHONE PICTURE OF THE PASSENGER SEAT EMPTY WITH THE LIGHT ON. I WAS DOING APPROXIMATELY 55MPH ON FLAT LEVEL DRY PAVED ROAD WHEN THE PHOTO WAS CAPTURED. I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM BEING CAUSED BY FAULTY SEAT SENSORS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT BASE. THE PROBLEM IS ONGOING AND STARTED APPROX. 2/15/16 WITH 3100 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. I WILL BE TAKING IT TO A DEALER ON 5/20/16

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON RANDOMLY WITH/WITHOUT OCCUPANT. WILL STAY ON FOR PERIODS OF 30 MINUTES AT A TIME. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHEN CAR IS STATIONARY, IN MOTION, ON A CITY STREET OR A HIGHWAY, TURNING, BRAKING, ANYTIME. I ONLY HAVE 1300 MILES ON THE CAR.

AIRBAG RECALL ON NISSAN SENTRA. WENT TO THE DEALER FOR THE RECALL. AFTER RECALL THE AIRBG LIGHT REMAINS ON WHILE PASSENGER SEAT IS OCCUPIED. BACK TO THE DEALER, THEY DID ANOTHER SOFTWARE UPLOAD. LIGHT REMAINS ON WHILE SEAT IS OCCUPIED. BACK TO DEALER, THEY REPLACED "SCALES." LIGHT REMAINS ON WHILE PASS SEAT IS OCCUPIED. BACK TO THE DEALER, THEY REPLACED THE SENDING UNIT. LIGHT REMAINS ON WHILE SEAT IS OCCUPIED. CALLED THE DEALER, WAITING FOR REPLY. THE LIGHT COMES ON ONLY INTERMITTANTLY WHILE THE SEAT IS OCCUPIED, OR RATHER FAILS TO GO OUT INDICATING THE AIRBAG IS ARMED. THIS OCCURS WHILE THE SEAT IS OCCUPIED BY 120 LB WOMAN, AND 200 LB MAN. APPARENTLY THE DEALER IS UNABLE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM, SO FAR.
