general problems of the 2004 Nissan 350Z

The airbag light came on for no reason, has never come on before. No accidents, fender bender, no bumps. Shop read an error code of b1129. Checked right passenger srs seat connections as code suggests and reset the light. Light came back on in two days. Shop says airbag may not deploy and can not determine the exact cause. Could easily cost over a $1000 to fix depending on issue. Airbags should not have issues like this. Nissan already has a service campaign for the same issue on later model 350z. Please encourage Nissan to include the 2004 model as well. From all my research into resolving this issue, I can see there are a lot of other 350z owners affected as well. Please help us. Thank you, randal marx.

My car light just came on. I never had an accident with my car since I purchased it from palm springs Nissan. In 2004.

Passenger side a/b deployed and seatbelt tensioner is taught and appears to have worked. Driver side a/b did not deploy and seatbelt tensioner is not taught and appears to have failed. Mva involved a head on accident to the left front side of the 350 z convertible. Impact was at 40mph. Srs lights are not indicating that the a/b deployed.

: the contact stated after getting a carwash, it was noticed that a dimple had formed on the dashboard above the passenger airbag. The dimple worsened through time and the dashboard eventually caved in. On 10/13/06, the dealer was contacted, and determined that the entire airbag system had failed. The airbags and dashboard needed to be replaced. The contact planned to notify the manufacturer after filing a complaint with the NHTSA.

Recently driving my Nissan 350z along a highway, the airbags for no reason, deployed on their own. It was sheer luck that I wasn't killed. You would think Nissan would take responsibility for this problem with their airbags, but no! Nissan won't fix the car until I sign a legal release letter so they can't be sued.

I was involved in a near fatal auto accident, which Nissan didn't report to the death and injury reports done every quarter per annual year. The accident almost left me paralyzed and I broke over 6 bones in various body part locations due to the car not living up to the "safety" features the maker boasted to have which falsely lead me to buy the car and nearly killed me during an accident, at no fault of mine. The accident was on 1-18-2006, the vehicle a total loss, and occurred in arizona on interstate 51 in phoenix az. I was rear ended, while sitting in traffic pile-up during rush hour traffic. The other driver was estimated to be driving upon impact at 43 mph. I had my sealtbelt on, which broke my collarbone, and a rib. I also ruptured a silicone breast implant from the force of the car into the steering wheel. The air bags didn't deploy, the leg and feet compartment for the driver area caused one foot I had on the brake, to break the sessamoid bone; the rt knee was thrown into the steering column and I broke my patella and tore my meniscus. Both required surgery, both on opposite legs. I required surgery for the ruptured implant. My neck was fractured and the blow and whiplash from the inadequate head restraint caused vertigo for nearly 3 months. I suffered brain bruising and swelling from hitting my head against the headrest after being thrust forward without an airbag to cushion the jolting of the neck and spine. My thoracic spine was fractured, and remains that way since I've opted not to have surgery. The lumbar spine has a ruptured disk and developed a mass from the impact blunt force trauma that developed from the other drivers car hitting my rear end of the car and the seat thrusting all the contents of the vehicles structure into the seat behind where I sat. I had surgery on the removal of the mass and the lumbar spine repair 3 times. My life was completely destroyed as a result of the false misleading claims the Nissan manufacturer and dealer claimed.
