After being involved in a 3-car accident on the nj turnpike at 3:15p.m. the air bags did not deploy, everyone was wearing seat belts, yet no one was hurt, not even a whip lash. the left side sustained headlight and hood damage, drivers door would not open and it appeared that the radiator was busted since liquid was pouring out. we were towed to the nearest collision place and geico towed it from there to its own shop. since the car was so new, geico had some difficulty in obtaining part numbers and cost. the next call from geico was to tell us that the car was totaled. the battery exploded. battery acid eating most of the components under the hood. question which was defective.. the air bags the electrical system or the battery why would a battery explode when the car did not have enough impact to deploy the air bags? *tr

Passenger air bag light is not active while passenger is in seat. this problem happens intermittently. my wife and i are both about 160lbs and when we sit in passenger seat the "not active" airbag light comes on the vehicle. i contacted nissan about it and they said there was no issue. i took it to the dealer and they could not reproduce. i submitted an issue on nissan website and have not heard anything. if i get in an accident and the airbag does not deploy there could be serious injury or death to the passenger. now there is a recall on the product but dealership is telling me my car is not listed and i have to pay to get it looked at when i'm still under factory warranty. there is no specific incident date since it occurs so randomly. *tr

I was just wondering if they have been a concern with 2007 nissan's, my air bag seems to come on and off when it wants to i didn't know if this was the way they work or if there is a problem with it. because when some one is on the passenger side it goes on and off constant. i will put a date in, but cant be correct if it is the correct date but i purchased mine in may 2007 i noticed it about a few months later. *tr

Purchased 2007 nissan altima and passenger airbag system stopped functioning approx 350 miles on odometer. have been waiting for 3 weeks plus to get repaired and not getting much resonse from nissan.*ak

Within a week of purchasing the car i noticed that the light indicating that the passenger side airbag was off would illuminated when the 180 lb husband would sit in the passenger seat properly restrained. not only would it come on and stay on, but it would go off after a little while then come back on. a while later, it would come back on, then go off again. the dealership where i purchased the car reset the computer, but the problem occurred again. at this time, i had a 55 lb child sit in the passenger seat and buckle up the light did not come on. as i understood , it was designed to come on in this situation. the dealership has since put a seat from a new vehicle . nissan was in no hurry to ship the dealer a new seat into the car, but the same problem happened again. now, when i have articles that were somewhat heavy , 20-30 lb, ) in the passenger seat without the seat belt buckled the light will come on, go off, and come back on again multiple times at odd intervals. i didn't believe the sensor is working properly when anyone was in the car.*ak

Our vehicle has had problems for almost two years with the passenger airbag light staying on during travel. we have made numerous visits to the dealer, and unless they can replicate it, they cannot fix the problem. we have even made a complaint with nissan. no one seems to know if the airbag is defective or if there is an electrical problem. we are tired of trying to get this resolved through nissan and the dealer. we do not want to have an accident to see if the airbag works properly. *tr
