Passenger air bag light stays on while passenger is sitting in the seat. Problem started a couple of weeks after I leased brand new car. The problem is ongoing for over a year now. The fox Nissan dealership cannot replicate the problem so Nissan will not offer any resolution. I've been trying for a year now and the problem persists, Nissan or dealership cannot say if the airbag will work in the case of a crash. I'm paying monthly lease payments on a car that may or may not be safe. What ever happened to customer service? took the car in last Friday for the airbag recall, problem is still there after dealership updated the software problem. Both fox Nissan dealership and Nissan regional field rep said there is nothing more they can do since they can't replicate the problem. Apparently the photos of the problem they had me take we're to make me feel like they actually cared. I can't believe I'm continuing to make payments on this unsafe vehicle.

Brought my car in when I received the recall notice from Nissan that the passenger side air bag had an issue due to a software glitch. After bringing the car in and having the software updated, a few days later, the light again came on while there was a passenger (myself, adult female about 130 lbs) in the passenger side seat (my husband was driving and noticed the light had come on). I reported it to the dealer where I had bought the car and had the recall repair made, they told me there were several other cars also reporting that the error continued even after having the software fix applied. They told me I'd have to bring the car in and they would try to duplicate the error and possibly replace a seat track, but would need to confirm with Nissan on whether or not they could do this. I think it is ridiculous that if they know there is an issue and know the fix did not fix it, they need to proceed with additional steps in order to resolve this failure in the safety equipment.

The passenger airbag turns off when a passenger is in the seat. It is not always immediate and does not happen every time it is driven. It has had 2 recalls for this issue and this will be the 11th time it has been into the dealership for this same thing. The majority of the time, the dealership claims that they cannot find a problem, however, they were not driving it beyond the parking lot enough to even put one mile on it until I brought that to their attention April 18, 2014. They stated that the vehicle never showed a campaign for the recall, although 2 of my receipts state that it was repaired. I've contacted Nissan headquarters and requested a repurchase order, however it is not guaranteed. They told me to keep working with the dealership. I have taken it in an excessive amount of times for the same thing. I bought the car with 7,000 miles and remainder of the warranty, . if it had been purchased brand new, it would have qualified under the lemon law as a lemon. It is an unsafe vehicle because the airbags will not deploy if we are in an accident and I'm not making progress with the dealership nor headquarters.

Leased the vehicle in January 2013. Noticed that when I sit in the passenger seat, the airbag off light is illuminated at random times. Sometimes it is on the entire time I am in the passenger seat, sometimes it comes on after driving for a while and stays on and sometimes it doesn't come on at all. Brought to dealer for various fixes/recalls on the OCS system; had the latest recall issued in April 2014 done on my car a couple of weeks ago and the light still comes on intermittently, same as before. This is a safety issue to me, as I do not know if the airbags will deploy or not if we are involved in an accident because there is no consistency with the airbag off light being on when I sit there. The dealer looked at it once more for me yesterday (5/28) and said there is nothing else they can do. They have no idea why the light illuminates or if the airbags will deploy if I am involved in an accident. This is not a satisfactory answer to me. Someone else must get involved to get this issue resolved for me. I understand the dealership's hands are tied as they have no further direction/info from Nissan to correct the problem and they don't know what to do. I need a response and fix on this.

I have experienced several incidents where the airbag off light was on even though an adult passenger was riding in the passenger seat with their seat belt fastened. I was made aware of the passenger air bag recall affecting many 2013 Nissan Altima. I brought my vehicle to the Nissan dealership just one week ago for routine maintenance and I inquired about the recall. They performed the recall which I believe involved a software update. However even though the recall update was performed, today just 5 days after receiving the update, once again the airbag light was on with an adult sized passenger in the car's front passenger seat. I had to stop, turn off the car and restart in order to correct the situation.

My wife and I were driving I noticed the passenger airbag light saying "passenger airbag off".. my wife is about 150 lbs and the airbag seat sensor should not have an issue with a person of this weight. I worked on seat sensor design for almost two years and I know that most are programs to not deploy for people under 80lbs. This has happened three times so far (mid Jan, end of Feb, and early March 2014). I have pulled over each time, turned the car on and off and it re-set the error two of the three times. The one time it did not, I drove an additional 10 miles then retried the car off/on and it re-set so the airbag does work. Now I'm driving around checking for the light so I know the airbag will deploy in case of an accident when I have a passenger in my front seat.
