Nissan Altima Air Bags Safety Report | May 22, 2013
Reported on May 22, 2013
| I FIRST HAD THE AIR BAG PASSENGER SENSOR WARNING COME ON AND STAY ON FOR AROUND FIFTEEN MINUTES AND THEN IT WENT OFF. MY WIFE WAS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT IN ALL THESE INCIDENTS. THIS HAPPENED TWICE BEFORE I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE SEAT SENSORS. THEY REPLACED THE SENSORS AND PERFORMED THE ZERO POINT RESET ON MAY 31, 2013. PRIOR TO SEPT. 6, 2013 I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM OF THE PASSENGER SENSOR WARNING COME ON AND STAYING ON FOR TEN TO 15 MINUTES. ON SEPT. 6TH THEY SECURED SOME CABLES AND PERFORMED ANOTHER ZERO POINT RESET. PRIOR TO FEB. 21, 2014 I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY PERFORMED ANOTHER ZERO POINT RESET ON FEB. 21. ON MARCH 15TH I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM ONE NIGHT WHEN WE DROVE 5 BLOCKS FROM A FRIENDS HOUSE AND IT WAS STILL ON WHEN I SHUT THE CAR OFF. I HAVEN'T TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALER YET BUT THE ZERO POINT RESET DOESN'T SEEM TO BE SOLVING THE PROBLEM. AT THIS POINT I DON'T KNOW IF ANYONE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT IS BEING PROTECTED OR NOT. HAS ANYONE ELSE BEEN REPORTING PROBLEMS WITH THIS CARS SENSORS? | |
