Airbag blinking on dashboard due to passenger side seat airbag sensor malfunction and/or failure. My wife has purchased the vehicle used, and we happened to have accident hit by other car on the driver side door while I had been trying to get back home on the weekend after grocery shopping trip with my whole family at 02/05/2017. It happened at the service road of sh 121 tx. While I was turning left on the straight/left lane on green light. After the accident, none of the airbags were deployed but somehow the airbag light started blinking on the dash board, of course we took it to the repair shop and the service adviser has explained that airbag sensor on passenger seat was malfunctioning and they would have it fixed. So we thought we got it fixed, and drove it around for a few months. And somewhere around June, the airbag light on dash board came again and we've tried to summit the supplement for the airbag issue, and had it diagnosed by autonation Nissan at lewisville tx and the insurance company denied the supplement request because the autonation Nissan has stated that "airbag malfunctioning on Nissan Sentra is a common problem" and for that reason the supplement was denied, and it got me thinking that if it's the common problem as the service adviser of the Nissan stated, then why won't Nissan issue recall order for such an critical issue that may cause catastrophic event if it keeps malfunctioning? I would like NHTSA to have proper investigation on this matter... because if the airbag sensor malfunction is not related to the accident I had, then Nissan is not caring about the lives of people who drives the same model vehicle as my Sentra...
Front seats on 2008 Nissan Sentra move and rattle. I had a metal bracket that failed under the passenger seat repaired because Nissan did not offer a replacement part. The entire seat base had to be replaced. Nissan has a service bulletin on the issue. I'm concerned about the integrity of the seats in an accident. I've not had the seats repaired because the cost is beyond what I can afford at the moment.
Nissan Sentra 2008 front seats popping noise and movement. Have taken to dealer 4 times and all they said the bold are loose, but once leaving the dealer the popping and movement continues.
With 12000 km on my 08 Sentra was informed my rear tires needed to be replaced. After much fighting with my service manager, dealership manager, and dealership owner they agreed to inspect the components of the rear suspension and was informed that it was out of alignment, and they could not bring it to within spec. The fix was a total rear suspension replacement...I now have a front strut bearing gone and have been waiting 2 months for parts...with my front end alignment out because of this, and no word on part arrival.
