Brought my car to lia Nissan of saratoga NY June 29th 2018. The did a recall replacement of my passenger side airbag occupant sensor, since then, and before the year was out, the part has gone bad again. Brought to dealer, the service manager states that because I didn't bring it in before the year warrantied date, they need to charge me a $119 diagnostic fee. The part to replace the occupant sensor costs $45 retail. I do not feel I should be responsible to pay a fee for a part that is known to have multiple failures.

My rear door will not lock and when you lower the it opens the door I have 47,000 mi on my car and all my rotor have to be replaced. I am concerned that the current air bag recall did not include my car.

Air bag light suddenly started to flash. Dealer indicates the sensor inside the seat is defective. $1500+ to replace. Until it is fixed the airbag will not deploy in an accident for any passenger regardless of weight. I checked online and several others have reported this issue.

I was involved in an accident where I was driving my 2016 Nissan Altima when I rear ended the car in front of me that was stationary at the traffic light. I was traveling approx 30mph, but when I tried to slow down by gently applying my brakes but my Nissan Altima car did not slow down at all. I then slammed the brakes down firmly, still nothing, the ABS did not engage at all. I swerved to my right to try and avoid hitting the car in front of me head on. I caught it's right hand back fender, both front air bags deployed, the impact of hitting the Mercedes stopped my car- both airbags inflated. My 90lb, 18 yearold son was sitting in the passenger seat. I brought it up to Nissan on two separate occasions was on and off when my son sat in the front seat. On the first occasion Nissan just reset the passenger airbag sensor. It did not solve the issue, the second complaint, Nissan said it would only go off if my son weighed over 110lbs. In this accident the air bag did go off, considering this car was going to be the car he drove- he has his permit right now, so if the driver weighs less than 110lbs it would not deploy. It does not make sense. Secondly, I believe the Nissan Altima brakes failed in the accident. When the tow truck driver picked up the car on its flatbed, he said that it appeared there was something funky with the foot brake, it was rock hard when compressed. The ABS completely failed, I never felt it engage after pushing firmly hard on the brakes. There were no skid marks on the road. I noted the road where the accident occurred had two types of fluid on it, one oily one like coolant. The car was recently serviced, by Nissan van nuys, they replaced the transmission. The car drove incredibly well for a week, but the last few days I noted the sluggishness again returned. My tires and brakes which were all fine. They did replace the brake fluid.

Purchased 4/2017 brand new. July 1st, notice the airbag sensor light is on on the instrument panel, take it in; they replace a sensor, didn't fix, replace another sensor, light goes off. In August, the vehicle again has the light on, take it back to dealer; they replace the first sensor (the one that wan't bad) and the light goes off. However I am told that the tech thought it may be a wiring harness issue; "lets see if this corrects it"; since the airbag won't deploy if the sensor is bad!! December 19th; driving in a snowstorm, the light comes on again. Since it's a safety issue to drive it as without the sensor; the airbag will not deploy. So here we are third time to go out; and it seems like wiring shoudl have been looked at first.

My transmission is constantly kicking back at me, this morning 2017-09-27 my transmission completely gave out. Reving is to 5-6 RPM not being able to exceed 10 mph. The drivers side curtain airbag keeps tripping my airbags to deactivate. Have to had the code reset several times. The back up camera looks like it is loosing signal even though it is hard wired, the lane sensor warnings fail, failing to inform of a vehicle in your blind spot. The key fob continuously says key invailed dashboard.

I took my vehicle in for the first airbag recall and they fixed the issue. The airbag issue reoccurred again when someone would sit in the passenger seat, the vehicle still showed the passenger airbag disabled. I had people of various weights sitting there ranging from 70 pounds to 140 pounds. This happened over several weeks and when I took my car in, they fixed it again. Now it's happening for a third time.

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.

There is also an noticeable vibration in or near the drive train when ever engine is operating at or near 1750 RPM that also has not been eliminated.

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.

- Lynchburg, VA, USA

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.
