Airbag light is constantly flashing and nothing on the steering wheel works. Cruise control, volume for the radio, mode select and etc. This seems to be a common issue after looking at other forums with Nissan Titan owners complaints.

My vehicle impacted another vehicle from the rear and air bags did not deploy. The air bag light has been on. Several electrical problems; steering wheel buttons stopped working in 2008, ABS light remains on, backup sensor went out 11-17 and most recently I started my vehicle one morning and speakers started popping really loud and immediately smelled of burned wires and just two days later vehicle would not start, battery was completely drained. After charging worked fine for a couple of days but just repeated the same situation. This vehicle has gave me so many electrical problems starting a year after purchase. Also noticed that one of the a frames welded joints is cracked. I am a certified welding inspector and can say that it is a manufacturer discontinuity. The catalytic converters went out years after purchase in 2006. I have had to replace the engine because of the catalytic converters. I am the one and only owner and purchased it new with only 17 miles on it. This vehicle has had so many electrical/mechanical issues that im starting to think I should apply under lemon law but I dont know how to do that.

Had a recall on the 2004-2006 air bags and took Titan in to university Nissan in florence, al. Was informed that the recall could not be completed on some of the 2004-2006 Titans and they would contact Nissan to get a solution. After several months of waiting I contacted Nissan usa and then university Nissan tried again to reprogram the airbags but it still would not take. Now I have found out that Nissan has suspended the recall until such time that they can produce a program to fix this recall. I know, other owners are having same problem and now what can be done " if air bags decide to go off on my vehicle, who is responsible for safety of my family and the repairs to fix if the air bags deploy for no reason " I need my vehicle and cannot park until they decide to fix their mistake. I need some help in getting this recall taken care of. If you cannot help then where do I turn for help. Emmett jones

Air bag warning light started blinking. Diagnostic gave code of crash zone sensor communication error. Researched issue on line and see that there is a recall for snow belt states which Maine is included but not the Titan. Contacted Nissan regarding issue and was told that they would not cover because we are outside of warrantee? find it odd that some vehicles are being covered but not this one. Previously to the airbag light issue my husband was driving on the interstate doing approximately 70 mph when the vehicle abruptly lost all power. Thankfully no vehicle behind him. He pulled over into breakdown lane tried to restart vehicle wouldn't start initially but after 10 minutes did start. No codes to be read not sure if this is related to the airbag issue but obviously not safe to have your vehicle abruptly shut down at 70 mph.

My Nissan Titan is supposedly not included in the takata recall, however, the airbag light has come on and I am very concerned that if I was involved in a crash, it may not deploy or may deploy without any reason. I have talked to the Nissan dealer in hattiesburg, ms, but they said it is not included. If something like this would happen, I am sure Nissan would pay dearly. My Nissan also had the brake problem that you did the recall on several years back, but again, my particular vehicle was not included in the recall, but the Nissan here did fix it and did not charge me. This needs to be resolved before I get killed or injured badly.

Air bag warning light flashing and failed to stop. Took the vehicle to my dealer for repair also gave them my service contract information through allstate cont #; [xxx] at [xxx]. I was told as well as the dealer that the wiring harness that caused the issue was allowed to be patched and not replaced and furthermore was not a cover item even though electrical is covered in the plan. I explained to them it is against the law to patch and repair the wires as well as to time consuming to locate the 1 wire. The man informed me they do this practice all the time. So how many unsafe vehicles has allstate with the assistance of pablo creek placed in service? information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

My 2006 Nissan Titan king cab has the air bag light flashing, I was advise by a mechanic that there's a recall on same vehicles just like mine, the recent dealer's diagnosis confirms that the wiring for the harness are broken and it's require to be replaced, this issue applies to the same description on the recall campaign # 06V459000 Nissan claims my VIN it's not on the recall, but the problem is the same, it's a safety issue and should be Nissan, S responsibility to repair. This is unsafe for me, my family and other drivers out there. I hope the national highway safety administration open a recall under my VIN range. This can be a serious safety hazard.
