Nine problems related to air bag light on have been reported for the 2011 Infiniti G37. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The air bag light is blinking. Also the convertible hard top does not open.
Airbag light illuminated; Infiniti dealer said need to replace both front seats at cost of $15,000 to fix (replace) faulty airbag sensors. Low mileage 2011 vehicle (62,199); no accidents or problems that caused the airbag light to illuminate. Dealer says airbags will not work, and only fix is replacement of both front seats. Online search turns up many Infiniti owners with same issue.
The passenger airbag light is flickering on the dash. The passenger airbag light indicates that is it off whether someone is sitting in the seat or not. I took the vehicle to an Infiniti dealer where they quoted roughly $1500 to replace an airbag sensor in the passenger seat and possibly the seat bottom. This is a major safety concern due to a faulty component. I called Infiniti USA to inquire about receiving financial assistance for the repair. Their response was no since the vehicle was out of warranty. I am aware that a similar recall was made to the 2008 G37 model which is basically the same car. A malfunctioning airbag is a major safety concern for me, and I believe this is the responsibility of the manufacturer to correct.
Airbag light flashing when vehicle is turned on and remains on throughout driving until vehicle is shut off. Vehicle was not in an accident or any modifications performed on vehicle.
The airbag light on the dash came on flashing one day, and has never stopped. A mechanic cleared the light once when I brought the car in for something else, and the light came back on the next day. The airbag light on the dash says that the airbag is off. From my understanding, this means that none of the airbags will deploy if there is an accident. I am very concerned. This seems like a common issue for this car and Nissan/Infiniti doesn't seem to care.
The airbag light on the dashboard has been blinking. I took it to get repaired and the dealer told me I would have to replace the passenger seat. The cost is $7,000. I have not done anything to the seat. So, no airbag will be deployed if I am in an accident. Why has this not been recalled? this should be on the maker of the vehicle and not the consumer.
My Infiniti has 100,000 miles on it. Nothing at all happened to cause my problem - no accident, nothing special. It just suddenly, for no apparent reason, now has a flashing indicator that represents a problem with the passenger air bag that will cause it to fail massachusetts state inspection. I took it to the dealership in Infiniti of nashua in nh. I was told that it was a sensor problem, not a problem with the airbags themselves. Alas, the sensor can only be fixed my replacing the entire seat assembly. I was assured that this was very minor in terms of labor (maybe a couple of hours), but that it would require me to purchase an extremely expensive part. The dealership quoted me $10,000 for a car that is now worth about $12,000. When I did not jump at this offer, they contacted me three days later to say that Infiniti USA was offering me a discount and they would replace the sensor (via the whole seat assembly) for $7000. I have since gone to a reputable mechanic who said that the part costs about $6500. So not only was Infiniti of nashua trying to take advantage of me (perhaps because I am a woman), Infiniti USA is trying to get me to pay $6500 for a freaking sensor. My car is going to have to go into the trash heap. I see many other people discussing similar problems. Infiniti should be responsible for either fixing the problem - it is a massive design flaw that puts passenger at risk and makes their vehicles worthless far before their time. I will never buy another Infiniti again and will badmouth them at any opportunity.
The airbag light flashes red on the dash panel indicating the passenger airbag is not on. It also shows on the panel under the air conditioner controls that the passenger air bag is off. This is a safety issue and it is due to a faulty safety restraint system sensor the in the passenger bottom seat. Infiniti has had recalls and issues with this srs system in the passenger seat while they did not recall the 2011 Infiniti G37. My G37 has approximately 23,500 miles and they want over $5,000. 00 to replace the whole seat bottom. This is a defective product and someone needs to be held accountable. To top things off, my dash is melting and I know they had a class action lawsuit in florida with Nissan melting dashboards in 2008. I guess this could also be a safety issue since the dash is sticky and hot and if a child were to touch it they could possibly get burned not to mention the mess. Infiniti consumer affairs said they would not remedy either issue. What a quality product. . . . . . I will never buy another Nissan/Infiniti vehicle and have owned 5.
Passenger airbag light came on (April 5, 2017)while on highway. Had dealer diagnose and the results came out as the sensor has failed. The whole seat needed to be replaced. Costing over 6k usd, sensor cant be replaced by itself is absurd. Extended warranty did not cover it either even with premier care from all state. I tried getting it taken care of because lives are at stake but what can you do if you cant afford to fix it. It costs a seat or a down payment towards a new car. They should issue a recall for this. Ive seen online that im not the only one whose having this issue especially from Nissan/Infiniti.
