My tire pressure light is lit up on the dashboard. I was parked when I first noticed the light on. After noticing, I then proceeded to make sure all four tires had correct amount of air and to and to turn off car and back on to reset. After doing so the light has continued to remain on. Also my passenger airbag has been flashing on and off while care is in start mode. I am unsure the cause of it. My vehicle also cut off while stopped at a traffic light a few week ago. Unsure if the problems were related.

Sometime in April 2019 all of a sudden all the buttons switches in the steering wheel including cruise control; radio volume radio stations; the horn all stopped working without notice, also the air bag light began flashing. I asked the mechanic about that and he said lot if Nissan have that problem. He said I might need to get the combination switch?

The contact owns a 2007 Nissan Sentra. While closing the front driver's side door, the front driver's side and seat air bags deployed without warning or an impact occurring. There were no warning indicators illuminated. There were no injuries. The contact called interstate Nissan (located at 8890 peach St, erie, pa 16509, (814) 860-8377) and was informed to have the vehicle towed to their facility for diagnostic testing. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 125,000. Consumer stated this shows the insurance adjuster looked at the car and saw no visible damage that would cause the airbags to deploy. Therefore, I cannot file an insurance claim for this problem.

Driver air bag light came on while driving and won't go off. Even when reset it returns. Went to dealer and they confirmed that there was something wrong but didn't think it was a recall, and would charge close to $1000 to troubleshoot and fix.
