There was a recall on this vehicle in october 2015. i called the number asked to call and was told to take it to the dealer close to me. when i did that i took the car to nissan deals on automobile blvd in silver spring, i was told that someone has to sit on the passenger sit for the airbag light to go off. i asked what will happen when the car is due for inspection . the technician said that will take care of itself before the inspection time. as i writing thos compliant, the light is still showing and on going to the inspection, i was told that the car has failed inspection because of the airbag been disfunctional. i have called nissan motor and they are giving me the go around and not addressing the issue of the recall that caused my car not to pass inspection. please i need help as the recall issue was not addressed which has caused the problem now.for my nissan sentra 2013.

Driver airbag lights keep turning on and off on the dashboard. it turns on when i start my car or while i'm driving, and stays on. there are some days where it does not come on in the morning, and then it will come on in the afternoon. right now the light has been on for 2 days in a row.

Supplemental air bag warning light wont go off. was in motion on i 95

The airbag light remains on in the dash board and the passenger airbag light remains on even a passenger is seated in the car.

The red air bag warning light turns on displaying that the air bag is not engaged to deploy in the event of an accident. the air bag fuse is not worn. the seat belt buckle has already been replaced. all connections below the seats are connected. sensors have not been activated as there have been no accidents. the air bag warning light will either be on at the car's ignition, or it may turn on after two or more miles while driving.

One day i got in my car with my mother and it told me that the passager air bag was off but she was sitting in it. i had just turned it on and the day before that it was fine. also the one on my dash said that there was a air bag problem. it wasn't hit or touched it was truly over night infront of my house then the lights for the air bag were on when i started my car.

Airbag light is always on whether its in park or i'm driving it even when seatbelt is being used.

Air bag light stays lit when vehicle is turned on. mechanic says there is a problem with ocs sensors and airbag diagnostic unit.

Tl* the contact owns a 2013 nissan sentra. the contact stated that the air bag warning indicator illuminated. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 16v242000 (air bags). the contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. the vehicle was taken to acme nissan (2050 us-130, monmouth junction, nj, (732) 821-9300) where it was determined that the vehicle needed to be repaired before the recall repair could be completed; however, the contact declined. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not contacted. the failure mileage was 42,000.

Brakes failed to function when attempting to stop while going 35 mph on a dry, straight roadway. the pedal had some tension behind it but didn't feel right, kind of spongy and it went all the way to the floor. several pumps of the break did not result in significant braking so i spun the steering wheel to the right to try to avoid the car that was stopping, but could not clear it and my car has been totaled and i am in pain. airbags also failed to deploy, and i'd have thought a 35 mph crash should have been sufficient to trigger the inertia sensor.

First is was the a/c went out frist then the transmission problem when me my husband was headed to work one day the a eighteen wheeler almost ram into use because the stop in the middle of traffic and wouldn't go any where.

The dash sensor light that indicates when the passenger airbag is deactivated often lights up while adult passengers are in the seat. typically it takes 15 minutes of driving to reset the light. this happens regularly.
