The contact owns a 2008 Nissan Rogue sl. The contact stated that the passenger air bag occupant sensor failed intermittently while the passenger seat was occupied. Over time, the sensor completely failed and the air bag warning light flashed on the instrument panel. This occured in July of 2019 at mileage 175213. The vehicle was not taken to be diagnosed nor repaired. The contact did not know of a recall on airbags on her year and make of vehicle until February 2020. A dealer was contacted and advised the contact to call the manufacturer. The contact linked the failure to NHTSA campaign number: 08V521000 (air bags, electrical system) however, the mfg said that the VIN was not included. Even though the car was experiencing the same symptoms that the other 2008 Rogues that were recalled did, the mfg refused to include the contact's vehicle in the recall. The manufacturer was informed of the failure but offered no assistance. The contact researched the cost to fix the failure and it would be over $2000. The mfg told the contact that due to the current mileage of the vehicle, 190218 as of Feb 2020, they could not offer any assistance. Contact was told the car was too old and had too many miles for them to give any assistance.

Air bag indicator on dash flashing. Fault indicates that the passenger seat has a faulty seat cushion sensor. Dealer stated that owner has to pay $2,000 to repair. In the mean time any passenger riding in the passenger seat does not have airbag protection. I do not understand why Nissan is not required to repair safety issues?

My car will start, slowing down while I am driving. I called Nissan on several things concerning this car. Nissan has not had a recall on their 2008-2010 Rogue yet. 2008 is the 1st generation of this vehicle. I have had engine cradle problems, control arm problems. These car makers need to be held accountable for their product.

Rogue

My Nissan roguenwas one of the first models introduced in 2008. Since then there have been a few recalls that my Rogue hasn't been eligeable for. One of my recalls right now is the sensor in the pending under the seat for the airbag. The recall says the sensor will still be illuminated when a passenger is sitting in the seat meaning that the sensor for the air bag is malfunctioning. Have called the dealership and the car manufacturers for Nissan and they just won't help at all.
