problem #1

Nov 262007

Frontier 4WD 6-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 68,000 miles
Problems w/ passenger side airbag lock mech. Trouble turning the key to off position. Now it is locked in off position and can not be turned back on. Posted this issue on a Nissan forum and found it to be a common problem! I called a factory and they said the only fix was to take out lock core and have it re-keyed. Not a good thing if you ask me!
