Have had 2 factory recalls for pass. Side airbag not being activated with pass. In the seat. Still having the same problem sometimes. The dealer stated I would be charged if they cannot duplicate the problem. This has been a safety issue for the past 2 years. Thank goodness we have not been in a accident that needed the use of the pass. Airbag when it was deactivated.

My 2014 Nissan Altima drivers side airbag light has come on for the fourth time since new. (todays date 09/26/2016) the first two times, Nissan reset it and conveniently didn't make a record of it in the repair history while it was in warranty. I took it in a few weeks ago because the light was on again, they said it was a loose connection under the seat caused by a box of kleenex, which I think is not true. Last week the light came back on again with nothing under the seat. This time, they said I need a new airbag at a cost of $1100, claiming I never brought it in for the drivers side and that I have to pay for it because my car now has 70K miles on it, never-mind it is only 2 years old. My main concern is that this clear and obvious defect causes a significant risk to the occupants because it prevents any of the airbags from deploying in an accident. I cannot afford to spend over $1000 on a part that should never go bad on a car that is only 2 years old. Fyi: The vehicle was in motion when the airbag light came on every time and every time it came on there was nobody in the back seat, nor was the seat being adjusted or was anything interfering with the plug, as Nissan tries to claim.

Randomly this occurs, when sitting in the front passenger seat the air bag sign for that seat will say off. On our last trip we left a stop and entered the highway but the light stayed on indicating the air bag was not activated. We had to drive like that until we could safely stop. We then turned off the ignition and started the car again, and this time the air bag off light did not stay lit. We have had the vehicle at the dealer 6 times for this problem. Because they can not duplicate the problem when the car is there the only thing they say they can do is a zero point reset on OCS system. That has not stopped this issue from reoccurring. We have phoned bergstrom of oshkosh 5 days this week, they do not return our call. The last diagnosis states electrical, however, tony the service advisor told us the last time we were their that they don't want to throw money at the car it could be a sensor, electrical, the air bag system or the seat. Because they cannot replicate the problem when we are there they do not know what to fix, so choose to do nothing. The recall on the car was done 5/26/16. However we continue to have this problem. The service advisor has repeatedly said it is because the passenger is not sitting on the seat correctly, however the last time it occurred the passenger was sitting in the same position when the air bag was off as she was when the ignition was turned off and restarted correcting the problem. Our warranty will run out soon. We phoned Nissan and they will only go by what there auto tech at bergstrom tells them, so no help there either. I have copies of invoices from when the car was taken in for this problem.

There was recall on this vehicle NHTSA recall 16V-244. It was about the OCS. Vehicle was taken to crest Nissan of frisco 6600 state hwy 121, frisco, tx 75034 on 14 June 2016. According to the invoice given to me by the dealer the OCS unit was reprogrammed. On 9 Aug 16 I took the vehicle back to the same dealer because the supplemental air bag warning light remains on continuously. But the customer service agent at crest Nissan of frisco told me that there is nothing wrong with it, this light is supposed to stay on unless the passenger seat is occupied by an adult. Owner's manual on page 1-57 clearly mentions that " if the supplemental air bag warning light remains on after approximately 7 seconds, under this condition, the front air bag, side air bag and curtain air bag or pretensioner systems may not operate properly". the dealer has not only failed to rectify the problem but also lied to me about this technical and a potentially hazardous problem. It could mean that the front air bag, side air bag, curtain air bag and/or pretensioner systems will not operate in an accident.

Since I have had my 2014 Nissan Altima it has faced several major issues such has two transmissions replacements, now the ac compressor, then the car display screen turned completely pink, and other numerous issues that have already been documented in your system. Please refer back to my previous complaints that I have submitted, my service records for the dealership, and so forth for documentation purposes. I truly believe that a car with only 7 miles on it when purchased should not have any of theses issues unless it was manufactured poorly. I am so fed up with dealing with the dealership and run arounds from the corporation that I may have to take legal action if this issue is not resolved in a timely manner.

I brought my car to royal palm Nissan for a recall on the hood latch and told them to check the OCS light that went on intermittently even though there was a passenger seated. This was before the recall notice. I received the OCS recall and went to coral 'springs Nissan. I returned a week later because the light remained on for 17 minutes a few days later while driving with an adult passenger. I was told it could not be checked because the light was not on then. If the light goes on intermittently, then my passenger is not safe in case of an accident as the airbag will not deploy. What can be done?

I am contacting you over repeated issues with my 2014 Nissan Altima sl. This is my second complaint filed to NHTSA for this vehicle's airbag. As you are aware, a recall was issued and has been performed on my vehicle. My issue is that the passenger seat won't arm the airbag if my wife sits in the seat. I have multiple videos of this issue. My most recent visit to my Nissan dealer resulted in them stating they couldn't fix anything as they couldn't pull an error code. The very next day, the issue happened again with my wife in the passenger seat and again I recorded it. I opened a complaint with Nissan corporate. After a frustrating phone call this evening, and a lot of ambitious double talk on Nissan's part, the Nissan representative said that the issue was that my wife was too lite. My wife weighs between 103 and 108 pounds as she fluctuates a bit. She stands 5 foot 3 inches tall. The Nissan representative, delisa said that Nissan doesn't recommend anyone under 4 feet 9 inches or less than 120 lbs in the passenger seat. This was never told to me two years ago when I was looking at purchasing the car, or through any of the 6-8 service tickets I have opened regarding this issue with multiple different fixes attempted. ( I can get the exact number as soon as my dealer provides the requested information.) I would have never bought the car knowing my wife couldn't ride in the front passenger seat. I asked for this in writing from the Nissan representative but she said she could not provide that. She said it was only for their internal records. I pressed her on the fact that they were saying my wife couldn't sit in the front seat. Her reply was that she didn't say that, only that Nissan doesn't recommend someone less than 120 pounds in the passenger seat. Is it possible to be contacted by the NHTSA to clarify what Nissan is saying and if it is accurate?

"passenger air bags off" light is "on" while driving, at any speed, with an adult in front passenger seat. The problem first occurred when the vehicle was less that a week old. It continues to occur about once a month. I have had the car at the dealer many times. The problem cannot be duplicated at the dealer, therefore no repairs have been made. On June 15, 2016 the vehicle was taken to the dealer in response to recall #16V244000. No help! the problem has occurred twice since then. The problem: Always occurs during an engine start. Never while driving. It seems to be part of the initialization process. May correct itself at any time. It may last for a half a mile or 50 miles. Cannot be corrected by the passenger standing or bouncing can always be corrected by pulling off the road and stopping then restarting the engine. I have a lots of cell phone photos showing vehicle speed, "passenger air bag off" indication and an adult passenger in the passenger seat. These photos are dated.

- Galax, VA, USA

I just had a recall performed on my car for the passenger air bag sensor. Now, the air bag warning light stays on all the time when the front passenger seat is empty. This creates a dangerous situation while driving at night because it interferes with peripheral vision because the light is so bright. I complained to my dealer, but they say there is no fix for it. So what do I do, not drive my car at night ? they told me that the recall was ordered by the NHTSA.

I have not been notified of this recall! I come across it on my ms news now app, had I not been on this app I may have never known and for this I am very concerned for my safety and that of my niece. I take my niece to school everyday and I have noticed many times that my airbag light stays lit that it's off, I called my Nissan North dealership in jackson ms and I was informed that it was fixed and obviously it's not because it is still on!
