Xterra 6-cyl

  • 73,100 miles
Air bag sensor light starts blinking after engine startup and continues to blink until engine is turned off. Sent email to Nissan in Dec 2013 regarding this issue and they indicated "a review of our system indicates that the above-referenced vehicle is not currently involved in any recalls or service campaigns." I find it hard to believe this is not a Nissan issue when there have been air bag sensor recalls in 2005, 2006, 2007,2008,2009, and 2010.
