Collision into heavy BUS that crossed my path. Nissan totaled, airbags failed with high speed crash 55 plus mph with injuries. The passenger seat airbag light always stayed on since purchase. Nissan doing all they can to get out of the situation. Lots of excuses. Turned issue over to my insurance company to try to resolve with Nissan.

The air bag warning light has been flashing on my instrument panel since spring of 2019. Brought to a couple different places and they can't clear the code. Says no air bag detected. I haven't fixed it yet...cuz I ain't got the money. The vehicle was in motion on highway when light came on. There is no varying of light...stays on continually.

Dashboard airbag sensor light began flashing randomly in November 2018. When front passenger was present. I scheduled service with dealer per manual and technician cleared code. Airbag sensor went off yesterday 2/16/19 same issue when front passenger was seated again. Dealer stated issue not covered by warranty. They said it was a $1000 fix"??" I my humble opinion this is a catastrophe safety concern and asking consumer to fix is absurd and shameful.

Passenger sensor light comes while driving then resets when engine restarted. This happens a couple times then airbag light in console starts flashing permanently. The person sitting in the seat is easily 250 lbs so it must be a sensor ir even issue. Had a dealer check it once and no error code shows

Taksta recall. Adult in passenger seat. Airbag does not identify me in passenger seat. Airbag child safety light stays on. As being a light weight person under a 100 lbs do I not have the right to have a working airbag? how do we resolve this.

The contact owns a 2015 Nissan Frontier. While the front passenger seat was occupied, the air bag deployment warning light illuminated failing to detect the passenger. The contact mentioned that the passenger had scoliosis and the weight distributed unevenly when seated. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.
