I just took my vehicle in for it's normal maintenance (oil change/filters, etc.) today - 7/12/19. All is in good condition, except I asked Nissan to look at the flashing airbag light that started about a week ago for no apparent reason (O/a 7/5/19). They told me that my front air bag sensor is not working, and that it is not covered and would cost me apx $1,020 to fix. This is an apparent safety issue, and I did nothing to my vehicle for this kind of thing to stop working. I am concerned for my safety and am very reliant on my car to get to and from work, etc. I believe, due to the safety aspect alone, this should be a recall notice and fixed. If you could please look into this, it would be very much appreciated.

Air bag or electric issue to sensor in the passenger seat, but the light never goes off when anyone is in the seat. The airbag system shouldnt be doing this and I have addressed it with Nissan but have gotten nothing but the run around. When the vehicle is powered on in park or even driving the light indication stays on.
