Air bags off and not functional in 2007 Nissan Frontier. The red air bag light on dash blinks continuously as well as a second indicator on dash to right of steering wheel that indicates that the air bags are not functional. Has been like this for years after Nissan is said to have repaired the problem. The Nissan dealership that I purchased from is no longer in business - autoplace Nissan in buffalo. The Nissan dealership that Nissan has directed me to ( simmons rockwell Nissan ) wants $125 just to diagnose the continuing problem as related to a recall ( NHTSA reference# 08V690000 ). I do not believe that Nissan is acting in good faith regarding this continuing problem as related to a recall.

On Jan. 3rd. 2013 the red air bag light came on in our 2007 Nissan Frontier we took it to Nissan and they refused to do anything about. Front crash zone sensor "csz" the red air bag warning light will illuminate to alert the vehicle operator. My daughter had looked up our truck on line & found there had been a recall on these airbags sensors for certain vehicles. We even have the recall letter & still they won't do anything. The man that works or worked for Nissan in melbourne, Florida, when I told him my daughter had found the recall on line, his smart remark was, " you can find anything on the internet, you can even find santa claus if you look". we have not gotten anything done as of this date. May 29, 2015. We were in contact with Nissan"S main office, many times. The mileage was approximately 49,400 at the time.
