Airbag light flashing when vehicle is turned on and remains on throughout driving until vehicle is shut off. vehicle was not in an accident or any modifications performed on vehicle.
The passenger airbag off light turns on even if a passenger is sitting in passenger seat . i checked with inifiti and they say everything is fine but i still see the issue. in worst case if i met with an accident the passenger airbag might not open up. can cause fatalities . i'm having this issue since 2 years
The airbag control unit and sensor needs to be replaced. looking online this seems to be a common issue and there have been recalls for the same issue on different models/years. the parts for this are extremely expensive, $6,800 is the quote i received from nissan.
Air bag warning light would not go off. took it to a dealership and was told the problem is "occupancy sensor unit failure". need to replace the occupancy sensor and control unit, at a cost of $6,888. i am appalled that infiniti does not have a recall concerning this safety issue!! if an accident occurs, the airbags will not deploy. infiniti is supposed to be a high quality car. so disappointing!
Tl* the contact owns a 2011 infiniti g37. the contact stated that the air bag warning indicator illuminated. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the sensor on the passenger side failed. the vehicle was taken to bradshaw infiniti (2600 laurens rd, greenville, sc 29607, (888) 256-5250) where the contact was informed that the vehicle was not covered under warranty. no further assistance was provided. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the vin was not available. the failure mileage was approximately 91,286.
Takata recall: infiniti recalled an entire line of cars with faulty air bags/seat sensors, but did not cover all cars. i have a 2011 infiniti g37x with only 50k miles that i am being charged 7k to replace a seat cushion that has a failed sensor. this problem is widely known in a significant number of infinitis, yet the manufacturer will not repair obviouly faulty parts that were installed. this presents a massive saftey issue if i cannot afford a repair that i should never have to make. name another car of any make/model that has seat cusions fail. it is disgusting that infiniti will not correct their error, and worse that a government agency that is aware of the problem doesnt support buyers who are obviously being taken advantage of.
Passenger air bag off warning came up, flashing in red, which means the air bag would not trigger, result in life threatening and may cause the death for a passenger in the front seat. the vehicle was stationary in a garage, noticed it in the morning.
Nissan/infiniti safety issue the airbag light is blinking - sewell infiniti mentioned that it was the occupant detection sensor and it would be roughly 6000 to fix. this is an insane amount for a deadly issue as my airbags will not deploy if i am in an accident. a google search shows a trend of this problem occurring with the g37, and it needs to be a recall. nissan/infiniti have several other models that have been recalled for the exact same problem - this is a defect from the manufacturer they are trying to sweep under the rug on a car with under 60,000 miles. i bought the car with 36,000 miles and have not had a single issue up until now.
The airbag warning light is blinking in the dashboard and the passenger airbag is registering as off even when an adult is sitting in the passenger seat. infiniti identified the issues as a faulty sensor in the passenger seat and is charging upwards of $7,000 for a repair for something that is a pure safety issue.
The air bag sensor light on the dash has illuminated. this means that the switch in the seat does not detect an occupant so the air bag will no deploy in a crash. infinit of memphis wants to charge $8000 to replace the seat! this is a safety hazard and should be a recall issue. i see many complaints on this website about the exact same issue. how do we initiate a manufacturer recall?
Passenger seat sensor and side airbag problem.
The airbag light on the dashboard has been blinking. i took it to get repaired and the dealer told me i would have to replace the passenger seat. the cost is $7,000. i have not done anything to the seat. so, no airbag will be deployed if i am in an accident. why has this not been recalled? this should be on the maker of the vehicle and not the consumer.
A light came on saying the passenger seat air bag was not working. the vehicle was sitting still and the light continued while the vehicle was in motion. i took the car to an infiniti dealer and he said the entire seat would have to be replaced to fix the sensor for an excessive cost of of $6,711.08. this has been fixed on 2012 and later models, but there are thousands of 2008 - 2011 models out there that can incur this ridiculous high cost and owners have no idea of what it may cost tomorrow.
My infiniti has 100,000 miles on it. nothing at all happened to cause my problem - no accident, nothing special. it just suddenly, for no apparent reason, now has a flashing indicator that represents a problem with the passenger air bag that will cause it to fail massachusetts state inspection. i took it to the dealership in infiniti of nashua in nh. i was told that it was a sensor problem, not a problem with the airbags themselves. alas, the sensor can only be fixed my replacing the entire seat assembly. i was assured that this was very minor in terms of labor (maybe a couple of hours), but that it would require me to purchase an extremely expensive part. the dealership quoted me $10,000 for a car that is now worth about $12,000. when i did not jump at this offer, they contacted me three days later to say that infiniti usa was offering me a discount and they would replace the sensor (via the whole seat assembly) for $7000. i have since gone to a reputable mechanic who said that the part costs about $6500. so not only was infiniti of nashua trying to take advantage of me (perhaps because i am a woman), infiniti usa is trying to get me to pay $6500 for a freaking sensor. my car is going to have to go into the trash heap. i see many other people discussing similar problems. infiniti should be responsible for either fixing the problem - it is a massive design flaw that puts passenger at risk and makes their vehicles worthless far before their time. i will never buy another infiniti again and will badmouth them at any opportunity.
Infiniti should recall all affected g37 passenger air bag sensors. my infiniti g37 journey sedan has an issue of "passenger airbag off light" turning on when even an adult sits on the passenger seat while the vehicle is moving. it seems like the speed of the vehicle does not change the result. the light does not come on all the time but it does come on often enough to concern me. my wife is about 110 pounds and the airbag sensor should detect her as an adult and it should activate in case of a collision. however, when the "passenger airbag off" light is on when an adult sits in the passenger seat, it is a safety issue and infiniti should address it to insure basic safety of its occupants. according to the www.myg37.com forum there are many g37 owners with the same issue. yet there is no warranty or recall issued yet. infinit dealers say the problem is the sensor and the whole seat must be replaced and its cost is about $8,000 and the owner is responsible for the full price.
Takata recall, my car has experienced total shut down of airbags due to a faulty sensor in the passenger seat. after online research i have discovered that this is a quite common occurence and creates a public safety hazard. due to the high cost of repair, $5000+, many citizens do not have the problem fixed, thus driving without any airbag protection. also many people are reporting that soon after buying a used nissan product that the same problem occurs. i think this could lead one to believe that this is a quite common problem underreported by the primary parties. this along with the fact of excessive repair cost is , in my opinion, is creating an unnecessary public safety hazard which warrants further investigation. i thank you for the opportunity to allow you to receive my concerns.
The airbag light flashes red on the dash panel indicating the passenger airbag is not on. it also shows on the panel under the air conditioner controls that the passenger air bag is off. this is a safety issue and it is due to a faulty safety restraint system sensor the in the passenger bottom seat. infiniti has had recalls and issues with this srs system in the passenger seat while they did not recall the 2011 infiniti g37. my g37 has approximately 23,500 miles and they want over $5,000.00 to replace the whole seat bottom. this is a defective product and someone needs to be held accountable. to top things off, my dash is melting and i know they had a class action lawsuit in florida with nissan melting dashboards in 2008. i guess this could also be a safety issue since the dash is sticky and hot and if a child were to touch it they could possibly get burned not to mention the mess. infiniti consumer affairs said they would not remedy either issue. what a quality product......i will never buy another nissan/infiniti vehicle and have owned 5.
Passenger airbag light came on (april 5, 2017)while on highway. had dealer diagnose and the results came out as the sensor has failed.the whole seat needed to be replaced. costing over 6k usd, sensor cant be replaced by itself is absurd. extended warranty did not cover it either even with premier care from all state.i tried getting it taken care of because lives are at stake but what can you do if you cant afford to fix it. it costs a seat or a down payment towards a new car. they should issue a recall for this. ive seen online that im not the only one whose having this issue especially from nissan/infiniti
My wife was pulling into her parking spot at work with her foot on the brake when the car suddenly lurched forward. she clearly remembers braking as normal when parking and had witnesses standing within 15 feet that noticed the sound of the brakes and the brake lights lit. my wife's head hit and cracked the windshield. in addition to head injuries, she has whiplash and other injuries. the front bumper was badly damaged along with fluids leaking from the engine. the air bags never deployed. *tr
